"...why isn't Rain Forest Cafe Inc. in the (Motley Fool) portfolio?" I2, if memory serves, the guest hosting Fools delivered their unrestrained Rain Forest Cafe sales pitch on the Brinker show all the while stridently declaring their absence of a vested interest in said firm. When the stock subsequently crashed just after that show's airing, my suspicions were roused. Why had the Fools, who seemingly did not suffer from the collapse of that Forest, neverthe- less lead Brinker's flock, in so vociferous and determined a fashion, to the grim slaughterhouse? At the time, I proposed publicly that this incident be investigated by appropriate authorities; that proposal stands.
