The port_mgr posts today are indeed puzzling. They came across as crafted required statements from from a lawyer who's trying to keep port_mgr out of possible hot water. I witnessed lots of game playing and personal attacks of people and companies on an intenet site several years ago. It could be that the port-mgr posts indicate that these SI boards are getting tough on possible false accusations and deliberately published false information. On the other hand, port/mgr's posts might indicate that he's out to create some more consternation that he presents as lawyer-required. Or he even could be indulging in what he takes to be innocent tomfoolery. These are merely speculations on my part that by no means attribute questionable motives to anyone, including port_mgr. Nor do these suggest that some internet boards that were more lax in what precipitants said a few years ago aren't presently policing their posts a lot more carefully. Overall, I've been impressed with the sincere and well-intended posts of investors on the SI boards in comparison with the seemingly all-over-the-place posts of some internet sites some years ago. Regardless, each of us has the responsibility of trying to "size up" where people are coming from and how they're motivated. I wish us all good luck in the on-going challenge of separating the wheat for the chaff re the pros and cons of investing in CCUR and other equities. Harold V
