I'm buying some Peregrine based on one silly, but important comment, Moore is chairman of the Board and owns my Padres.

Brian,

My impression is that there's a tendency in this thread to mention any stock that rises far and fast as a gorilla. That's far from the definition of a gorilla. As an example, when you mention that AOL became a gorilla bear in mind that the authors specifcally exclude AOL from gorilla candidacy. You might disagree with them, in which case I'd be interested in your thinking about that.

I like Peregrine, the company, a lot too. It is one of about ten front office software stocks I follow religiously. However, by my interpretation of gorilla game rules, Peregrine is not a gorilla candidate yet.. Do you have any concerns about Peregrine's extremely small float of only 1 million shares?

Peregrine a gorilla? That is indeed comical. Any stock that goes up is suddenly a gorilla - give me a break. Peregrine is a nice little company but let's try to keep this thread a little more selective than discussing companies with 'me-too' product strategies.
