I don't understand your comment. There is no logical connection between my site and Zulugroup. I didn't create the site with financial success in mind, by the way. Without that context, I guess it's easy to draw nonsensical conclusions, though. If I were going to be jealous of anyone, don't you think it would be SI? But I've been quoted in print (Individual Investor) saying some very nice things about SI. I've e-mailed and spoken with Brad a few times, and we are nothing but cordial to each other. I think that the Dwyer brothers and Go2Net have done a great job here, and, in fact, that's certainly one of the reasons why I haven't persued my site any further than I have. I wasn't willing to take the big chance that they both took, dropping everything to build-up this site, moving in with their parents to cut expenses. What a great success story, and they deserve every penny of their success! SI's done a great job, I'm not sure what I could add without a great deal of effort that I'm not willing to expend at this time. Why would I be jealous of Zulugroup? I've read reports that their employees have trouble being paid, I know that their creditors have trouble being paid, they've run ZuluMedia into the ground, I don't see a coherent business plan, etc. etc. What's to be jealous of? Pat Hayton? Well, I know he lives well - I'm told he takes limos everywhere (but I'm also told that there are some big unpaid limo bills...), dines at the finest restuarants, etc. An enviable life? I think one has to look beyond the surface, and see how that lifestyle is maintained. Nope, I'm not a bit jealous of Pat Hayton. I don't have the wish to be a flim-flam man. PartyTime? Next. But, then, this doesn't have a damn thing to do with ZULU and ESVS, does it? It doesn't seem that anybody around here wants to discuss that. Aren't some people here getting further and further from the topic of ESVS and ZULU, and spending more and more time trying to find any way possible, legal and illegal (what comes next after breaking-in to user accounts on my web site?), relevant to the discussion at hand or not, to discredit one person whose views aren't popular here? You see, some people think it's OK to do that, but only when attacking "negheads". It doesn't go the other way. For example, mentioning PartyTime's minimal employment is a no-no, even when it's in response to his intrusive probing of mine. The double-standard is obvious, though, and I can't beleive that it works to cast those who hold it in a positive light.
