If The Brink reads this thread and is as smart as he should be he will discontinue this "opening monologue" stuff that everybody seems to think is his or her birthright for listening to Moneytalk. Why should he bother doing any "monologue" on the radio? He should consider simply answering the callers questions and commenting on whatever events he thinks deserve it. He should realize he gets nothing in return for his "monologues" except silly complaints on this thread about how some stations sometimes miss all or part of a "monologue". And then foolish email gets sent trashing station management for missing all or part of a "monologue". Instant solution: kill the monlogues and the problem is solved! Too bad Brinker could not borrow Wade Cook stock to short, it dropped 50%!!!

A letter to Bob Brinker - why I'm not renewing my Marketimer subscription: I did not receive the January issue of Marketimer until after the close of the market, on Monday, Jan 12. (It always comes on Monday, at the earliest.) I happened to miss both days of your radio show the prior weekend. Imagine my surprise when I heard the next weekend that you had alerted the entire country to the buying opportunity before I, a paid subscriber, heard of it. Millions of people (one would like to think) took advantage of it, but I could not. I was still abiding by the Dec newsletter, which had a lower target as a buying opportunity. The only reason I subscribed to Marketimer was to be certain that I received your valuable advice, even if I did not catch your radio show (it is often pre-empted here). Until you offer some sort of electronic delivery (fax, email, web) that would level the playing field for all subscribers, I am apparently better off getting your advice for free, rather than paying for it. Sincerely, Ken Brown PS - That was an uncanny call. Wish I'd have heard it in time to take advantage of it.
