Flightless....

Life is too short to get consumed in a financial pursuit that endangers your health. I guess you've come to understand this.

I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to keep up with the myriad posts over on Yahoo. It's been amazing to me to see a singular poster destroy all the good, all the optimism and all the momentum established there. I wish all the posters there would visit this board for it would greatly simplify my task of keeping up with the salient current events. I've resorted to skipping about 80% of the posts there and only read yours, Cardshark's, Nutstoo's, Gif's and a few others consistently. The rest are title-skimmed.

I've always found your posts to be informative, sincere and particularly amusing. You certainly have a gift on the keyboard knowing how to emphasize thoughts and making points with your cadence, caps and punctuations.

You are probably the primary poster who caught my eye and encouraged me to invest in this Company. I always feel better after I've read one of your messages. You've definitely served this board and Yahoo beyond anyone's expectations.

In general I feel encouraged about this investment. The only thing that continues to lurk in my mind is the question about the true number of shares in the float. I know it has been stated countless times that Colin has not released more recently, but I was recently involved in USXP and lost a significant amount of my investment when a suspected short position was dashed due to the submission of millions of shares nobody knew about. Despite this concern, I've continued to pick up more shares during the last few days in the belief that the fundamentals are based on the share count we've all been working with.

You have serviced us greatly and I appreciate your insight in the day's trends. If you would update us with a singular post, I am convinced that this could solve the Monski problem on the Yahoo thread. Just think.....ONE POST will unravel all the malicious gibberish from the countless posts of that mad man. Your approach is brilliant!

I agree Monski is probably clinically disturbed. When someone is frenzied as he appears to be, their energy level is considerably higher than most mortals, which may explain his posts around the clock.

Take care. DON'T POST if it may endanger your health or disrupt your personal affairs.....it isn't worth it for you, nor for me.

Dear Flightlessbird, I am afraid you have learned the hard way that you cannot reason with one who has no reason. Please take care of yourself. I shall be looking for your posts, whenever they appear. Thank you for all you have done.

flightlessbird-

While I am not a frequent poster here, I have benefitted greatly from the DD you and others have done and passed on here. I thank you. And I wish you and your family the best.

Victor, long on TGSK

Hi, Bird and all --

Credibility is the key to many of TGSK's problems. Right now, R.L. Moody, Jr. is the most substantial person associated with the company, and a brief quote or endorsement was indeed included in the PR issued on his appointment to the TGSK board as the first outside director.

It would be appropriate, in the current circumstance, for Mr. Moody to prepare more detailed remarks that can be posted at the GW website. Since he has a high reputation to maintain, extensive contacts and experience, his words would have much more weight than anything we can say.

I assume that there are readers of this thread that can convey such a request to Mr. Moody.

Regards to all --

Logan

Bird; I emailed you a private response. Here, I will state that I believe Monski has quite a reputation among BB stock followers at Prodigy, AOl, and SI. I doubt he will convince many to sell but he has completely disrupted many boards. He will only go away when his posts are ignored. This will happen fairly soon because he runs out of things to say and just keeps repeating himself (actually he says exactly the same things about every BB stock). Within a short time, his posts will be less about Great White than personal ewars with various foes. The depressing thing is that material posters like yourself, Card and Nuts will simply go away in the face of such invective. I would also warn people that there are those that claim Monski sends emails with viruses. My source is the WOOD thread here on SI. Recently I took a look at that company and read the entire thread as part of my DD. When I saw Monski's first post on Yahoo, I knew we were in for a ride. This guy is no honest slimeball shorter, he is one of the wackiest wackos in cyberspace. IMO.
