I thought your group's purpose was to educate. Well, we also assume people have at least a minimal sense of humor. I happen to enjoy certain TV shows like Third Rock from the Sun, Murphy Brown, Dinosaurs (remember that one?), and even the Simpsons, that use humor as not just something to make you laugh but something to make you think. An acquired taste I suppose. I'm really sorry you were burned in RMIL, a company for which you and Riley G were rabid supporters that was shut down by the SEC for being a scam. It's too bad you didn't listen to "us", as in those of our elk, errr... ilk, as in people like Tonto, Smartin, Mike Kugler, Topcat, Graystone etc. who tried desperately to warn people. I don't mean to speak for them but I think it safe to say you did a good job diverting the discussion away from what they said to how they said it. Maybe one day you can find it in your heart to apologize to those people who trusted you were really out to seek the truth when you were really just attacking those people who weren't being as nice to you as you would have liked. You then carried your crusade over to the AZNT thread and now here. In writing this one post to you I realize you'll now write ten in response. I realize Cindy will do the same. I realize after several years of this there's no sense in me trying to change you. However, I do think others who have not encountered you need to know your background with RMIL so they have a better context in which to frame what you say and why you say it. - Jeff P.S. Please do me one favor. Please call Business Wire and ask to be a witness for the prosecution. Thanks. ;^)
