Mr. C, People who's lives are somewhat public, bear a heavy burden at times. Good luck to you. KJC P.S. Still looking for Berko on CNBC. Thanks.

JJC, I'm sorry you have to go through this kind of BS when it's obvious, you're doing your best to do the "right thing" with TSC. I've gotten a lot out of TSC, and hope knuckleheads like Rahul don't ruin a good thing. Please don't let these ignoramuses(sp) wear you down, and continue to do "the honest" job you're trying to do. Good luck and God bless! joe

Mr. Cramer, I believe Rahul Desai owes you an apology for his intemperate remarks. P.S. Do your cats have any favorite stocks?

JC, its hard to hate someone who is so good about answering email from random people/fans. I don't agree with a lot of what you say and I think in many ways you're a bull market phenomenon. But fuck it: I could care less if someone I've never met agrees with me or not, and if there is going to be a ubiquitous raging bull out there that I don't agree with its good that he's at least interesting and intelligent. ie not Ralph Acampora or some of the more brain dead Wall Street party liners. PS thx for answering the emails that I sent c. a year ago. Don't agree with you on Kurlack, but thats life.

JJC- being another person who has business dealing with the public, I think the guy wants you to post eveything immediately, so as to prove your credibility, he poorly assumes that you have nothing else to do... in a certain sense he is right, because you did, or do make certain calls in real time. i do not have a membership with the street.com but i followed your stuff, before then.. i also thought you were pretty funny on that maher program. dealing with the public in your case is tedium. I used to hate stopping the car to throw them out, but was liable under my insurance policy if I did it while moving.... (your best reaction to this stuff is either truthful answers, or nothing- as readers all have differing opinions, and they remember what you post.) ;o) taxi

But he has a perfectly good point- you rant but you rarely seem to provide something people can learn from or find useful. And we have no way to verify anything you say. Who knows, you could just be calling hte market after the fact and not actually making any money. I often see references to your "hedge fund" but never an indication of its performance. How's it doing compared to the S&P 500? It should be beating it significantly given the derisive tone of your articles. You can call this abuse if you want, but I was nearly a subscriber. I am a subscriber to the Gilder Technology Letter. From his writings, I always learn something, whether I agree or not. Dragonfly

Hmm James I don't think Rahul is very bright - but do you have to cancel his subscription ? What kind of customer service is that ? Sure - he rants about your style and calls you a name but you rant in your column too and he was just using your style. If I were you, I'd fess up to an overreaction and give him a free 1 year subscription. Otherwise, you can't expect to grow your magazine very much.

Jim I am amazed that a fund manager with your credentials wastes his time here. I came across this thread accidently, and got a treat! Your presence here says a lot for your interest in investors in general and keeping your finger on the pulse of the little investor specifically. Most on these threads welcome the kind of insight and help you can give us in the market. Good for you. Remember any person with a little money, and littler knowledge, can buy a computer, access a phone line and enter the various threads of SI, and act like a stock market expert. When they lose money it is everybody else's fault. For every poster like this there are virtually hundreds of others that read and never post. Remember this: During the blackest days of the civil war, Abraham Lincoln was being briefed that General Grant was a drunkard and should be replaced, Lincoln thought for a minute and replied "find out what brand of liquor he uses and send a case to all of my Generals". In your case if you are an idiot like the poster claims, would you teach me how to be an idiot???? I like to make money, and being an idiot would be fine if that is what it takes. P.S. I love your diatribes on Squawkbox. Please don't stop.
