>>They are tout sites last time I looked.

I define tout as someone who was paid to talk about stocks. I *never* was paid to talk about anything. Bob defines a tout as someone who only posts the positives about a stock. That doesn't describe me either.

I will wait for you to post the stocks you considered me 'touting' ... Be careful this time with your 'research' I'm giving you fair warning most of those stocks, when I figured out they were doing something corrupt I begged people to get the heck out of them, without bashing them. You want me to post e-mails from people thanking me for that? I did it in a very civil, fair way -- so people would listen to me. I did my homework. Also define touting when you do accuse me of it, so we are on the page.

>>I posted them on SI a few months back. clubfatt.com and stockmines.com

Do you not accept anything I write that goes against what you beleive? I pointed out what those sites were/are. I'll do it again, to refresh your memory. ClubFatt was something very dear to me. It was a club of very cool folks I built from absolutely nothing. I enjoyed learning. I enjoyed teaching. Never once was I paid to talk about stocks. It was a friendly gathering of friends. If you do a bit more research, you'll see where I had no intentions of it getting the size it was. I actually cut off subscriptions to it intially. Why? Because I didn't want to 'move' stocks. It was completely private, on a 'ya gotta know me' basis...then, it was opened up for friends of the club..then I cut it back off and ONLY let in people by referal..And we were around for a year or so, before I got into this..Also, on some of my intial posts, I admit I was a total idiot. I posted like an idiot, I thought like an idiot (heck, I probably still do!). But because of the community that existed on SI, I learned how to talk the talk and trade the stocks. I am trying to build what SI lost..here.

stockmines is what i was going to call this place before I thought of investorshub. As in "digging for DD." I didn't use the name, so it's dead.

History 101 is now over.... <g>
