C, I wouldn't call myself paranoid. Cynical, yes. You wrote, If I ever felt the need to use any telephone recording devices in my dealings, you can be sure that I would no longer be interested in the company and would have no reason to place the call. Maybe that was the very same point I was trying to make. I have never had the need to tape a conversation regarding investments, but I wouldn't back away from it if I felt it was justified. (I do have the equipment because I tape phone interviews for one of my hobbies, family history.) You mention your faith in the principals and management of WT. I can't remember recall anyone suggesting that they've passed disinformation over the phone. I was directing the brunt of my comments elsewhere. Don't be too quick to dismiss taping calls. I'll bet that calls you've made have been taped from the other end. Just ask your broker if they ever tape calls. You seemed interested in my criticisms based on first hand information. I refer you to my recent comments on that rebuttal (which I would consider a first hand statement). For why I haven't made a phone call to Grant (which I guess would still be second hand information), see your comment above. I'm wondering why you would say that, I "seem to enjoy 'laying in the weeds'". I thought that I'm pretty open about my presence and identity here, unless you were referring to the entire forum as "the weeds" (although I wouldn't call it that, myself). Mike
