OK now I'm BLUSHING!! Hey i'm just a guy that fell for a line of shit;did my DD, attended the annual meeting and was impressed enuf to invest too heavy and LOST too heavy.. So i did a diff kind of DD..first i studied this web site and was amazed at how true dialog was either ignored,ridiculed or censored. Real bad boys who really said the wrong thing were banned from SI. SI alyd reminded me of the concept of Christianity it was such a great idea but absolutely no one was following like the si idea of a open frank talk forum for investors. Si alyd was a bunch of kissee kissees, pimps and shills lead by TM who knew with unabashed certanty that alyd will moonshot and only fools would think different. BTW the fools were told so in no uncertain terms. At anyrate my new DD focused less on y2k moonshots then on the issue of what kind of mgmt runs this co. It was then that the issue of mgmt ability and credibility hit me in the face. I am not going to repeat my last 50 posts but suffice it to say they didnt have credibility. I coined the term "Gruders Goof" and attempted to awaken this website altho some still prefer their slumber or kissee kissee. That's why your posts lastnite were a refreshing breeze-short,sweet &to the point aand the laughs on me because to me you were just a new poster attesting to the right of dissent which si alyd never embraced. I did not know who you were but if it makes you feel any better about 20 years ago i sat down next to a guy at one of the 2tables in the Steins Kosher Deli where they only have a counter and proceeded to chat away with the stranger at the table as i gobbled my pastrami. The guy was a barrel of laughs and wisdom and i was sorry our lunch ended. Next week, when i went to Steins to order out at the counter;mR sTEIN ASKED "HOWS wALTER mATTHAU?" i SAID HOW WOULD I KNOW.......AND mR sTEIN SAID..BUT YOU JUST HAD LUNCH WITH HIM!! sO GOODNITE WALTER;I MEAN dAVID.

REF:"WE need more enlightened managers to step forward" David; you are certainly causing me to play catch up on reading your stuff but when i read your article of 2 Dec and realized that Isaac Newton and Roger Babson arent available;i could not help but wonder if you considered today's alyd announcement of new team members and entry into enet to be consistent with your above setforth conclusion or just another smoke screen by inept mgmt? I dont know who these 2 new players are BUT i hold my breath on these news releases because i firmly believe the mkt will react negatively until new appointees are given Ken Starr power inc. not being under Bob's apron strings but instead having a autonomous role.. When i see that kind of appointment I willl return to alyd bigtime.Otherwise it reminds me ofthe story where Hitler called the brillliant young officer to the Bunker and made him the FIELD Marshall IN CHARGE OF all the Reich Armies. The new Field Marshall beamed with pride until his faithful aide reminded him that there was no Reich Army & Russian soldiers had entered Berlin.. Query:As long as Herr Gruder a absolute dictator of Alydreichland can these appointments have any meaning???
