Ron:

I'm real curious as to who you believe to be a "dubious poster"; also what proof you have to support your assignment of that label to "Pluvia" or anyone else.

I was ready to send this note last nite, then my ISP went down but I wanted to offer that I, a smaller investor who doesn't know "Pluvia" or any of the other individuals involved in the "Pluvia vs. Westergaard" debate or any of the debates here on PLSIA that preceded the "bounty" offered by J. Westergaard several months back took a lot of time "back then" to read all of "Pluvia's" posts, the entire Westergaard web site and 99 % of the posts on the "Pluvia vs. Westergaard" thread and tried to look at the matter more from the standpoint of the communications styles, the benefits of Silicon Investor for all of us small guys/gals who prefer to do our own independent research, etc.

I should also note that John Westergaard kindly offered and I accepted a donation for a small, rural school in Kenya but that doesn't buy anything as regards the debate.

I should also note that I sent 3 e-mails to an e-mail address that I found for requesting PLSIA annual reports (messages never bounced) and have NOT received the reports so have given up. Frankly I wanted to form my own objective opinion on the quality of this co. for investing a small amount as I'm interested in the product area, having worked for GE Medical Systems years ago and recalling some of their early work in dental x-rays, etc.

To this day I have NOT seen any proof that "Pluvia" did anything wrong; I jumped back into this the other day when I saw another reference on J. Westergaard's daily e-mail digest bringing "Pluvia"s name up again; in fact I believe I was the first to post that over here on SI because I did not feel that any legitimate information was presented.

I believe "Pluvia", regardless of his/her agenda, whatever, has a right, same as you, I and the others including J. Westergaard to use this SI forum, spread some BS, whatever, but lets not let the threat of "rewards", "bounties" whatever, destroy the open exchanges.

To lighten this up a bit - I'm from Wisconsin and our Packers will destroy the Vikings tonight!

Best, Ken Merwin
