Let's play suppose! Suppose a group of people got together one fine day and decided to put together a phony web page that depicted a y2k company as quote "an April Fools" joke. And let's suppose that this very same group of people, knowing that there are a lot of less intelligent people than themselves, would believe that people may believe this fiction as fact. And let's suppose that some of these less intelligent people decided to join SI because the FBN'ers were hyping this company on a thread. And let's suppose that after joining SI they found out that FBN was indeed a morbid, sick practical joke. Hmmmmmmmmmmm! FBN = Fraud Fraud = A false representation of a matter of fact, whether by words or by conduct, by false or misleading allegations, or by concealment of that which should have been disclosed, which deceives and is intended to deceive another. Any kind of artifice employed by one person to deceive another.

Uh oh, he's run rings around us, logically... And let's suppose that some of these less intelligent people decided to join SI because the FBN'ers were hyping this company on a thread. And let's suppose that after joining SI they found out that FBN was indeed a morbid, sick practical joke. I never considered this. I mean, what if said SI member then went to work and, full of anger and rage, blew away his boss? And what if that boss had a wife and kids? Jeez, that would be just horrible. I think I've changed my mind; FBN = Window and orphan maker And to show how much I despise a club that would have me as a member, I've decided to join others who share my and RU's way of thinking over on that other investing site. - Jeff
