Precisely Sophie.. Steven Harmon touts himself a Guru. If he's intelligent, he still has a lot to learn. He'd have been better off had he said nothing. His status as a Guru has taken a fall. Oh Well. Our "Guru" is George Gilder. And we all can be thankful for that. We'll encounter other anal-ysts of poor Harmon's sort; others claiming expertise about trends in the digital market space. Most will only skim the surface of these trends while Mr. Gilder is well known for going deeper and getting to the bottom of things for those to whom he carefully responds (despite the fact that his time is just as precious and limited). To quote Bertrand Russell, "To be able to fill leisure intelligently is the last product of civilisation." George Gilder, if I may say so, is a Guru at living in accord with Bertrand's words. It's what George preaches and hopes for in "Life After Television" and his latter works. Sincerely, Marty

Thank for the feedback, I would imagine there will be a number of 'Harmons' out there that will need to educate themselves on the complete ecommerce issues. It's just a bit unnerving that someone with a following of people may steer people wrong because they take his advice as fact rather than doing there own research. I'm not sure how big his following may be but there may be others with larger following that are just as ignorant on the subject and may affect the short term image of what is being accomplished here. Long term however will prove in our favor as history will tell our story correctly. Nice job people catching Harmon in error and hope we can all find and flush out others that need more information on the subject. Craig
