Re: the imposter Big Dog There's an imposter jbe, too (me). Actually, I'm small caps; the rightful owner of the acronym, JBE, uses full caps. Hence, I'm not sure the other Big Dog is a deliberate imposter. SI does not have a monitor that informs you, when you sign up, that your "name" is already taken. However, it should. And in my opinion, the SI Administration should inform Big Dog II that henceforth he must identify himself as just that -- Big Dog II. There is too much room here for confusion. For one thing, Big Dog II's real name is Mike (isn't that "our" Big Dog's name, or the name of "our" Big Dog's dog?). For another, he sends out a "hot stocks" newsletter. What if some people subscribe to it because they think Big Dog I is writing it? And what if they get mad at Big Dog I because of Big Dog II's bad advice? (Because I think it probably is bad advice.) jbe
