Sir Francis, Unfortunately, I think it's just a matter of time before everyone with something to sell targets these threads since those interested in investing are assumed to have excess cash to spend. I shudder to think. I don't know what SI's policy is on hucksters, and I don't want to start playing police. But your scenario of wading through endless pitches will absolutely kill SI. Perhaps Madhur and others like him could confine the bulk of their responses to private messages. If there's enough demand for the product, satisfied customers would, I'm sure, be more than happy to tell those in need about it. Regards, Paul Kaz
