knight...>>Joe, I've gone to great pains to stay out this latest foray, but this concerted attack on EC is a bit much.<< There is no concerted attack on this lying sack of crap. I don't care if he posts negative facts or even opinions about IPM. But when he starts insulting, lying, being rude, crude, etc., he deserves a similar response. I have a little Italian Greyhound that when attacked by a big dog just lies on her back and is so submissive that the dog doesn't bite her. I think that is what EC and a few others expect all of us to do and we have. I'm just not going to do that. If you respect a big dog like that, so be it. >>I have a lot of respect for this gentleman, guess you could say that I am one of the cult :-). EC has a lot of mining experience and advice that can benefit all of us.<< I don't dispute his mining experience. I think his advice for me to shove myself up somebody's ass as well as his other insults is far to much. If you respect a person that does that, then I really question your values. Ever since his first post when IPM was taking a beating, he has insulted, made fun of, lied, etc. If he has a cult, they are one bunch of confused individuals. >>I will admit that he is very opinionated and may rub some folks the wrong way, but then so are you, wouldn't you agree?<< No I don't agree. First, I am not that offended by his opinions. I'm highly bothered by the insulting and rude way he communicates which really only includes one opinion ... "IPM is a scam". Check my posts and I think you will find they were all designed to get certain people to quit insulting, destroying the thread, etc. My opinion is that IPM is a stock that not enough people want to buy right now so it is down. Hopefully something will happen that will change their minds and it will go up. I believe in analyzing the flow of investors, why, when and where. I do despise people who drive off the better posters and confuse the messages or trend analysis. >>I don't think EC promotes his newsletter any more than others on SI. The newsletter put out by Mr. Struthers and Mr. Taylor were given some free advertising on this thread when things looked rosy. What is good for the goose, should be good for the gander I think. Just a few thoughts.<< I totally disagree and what's more, what somebody else does certainly doesn't justify what EC has done. His sight is a blatent advertisement for his newsletter. Knight, I am not in the least bit interested in being a cyber sheriff. However, I am not going to stand still for the crap that EC and some others put out. Maybe you are going to have to choose sides.... being reasonably polite, tolerant, etc. or a member of the EC cult!
