Al,

You must be one of those "guilty until proved innocent" guys. While all the speculation here has been interesting, it is just that. Speculation. If Mike B., who monitors trades fairly closely, has been OK with things, I don't think the manager in question has to defend himself. Also, I think very few managers are even aware of the Discussion BB as I have noticed over the last months that the same relatively few owners post over and over. So I don't think the absence of an owner "defending" himself should be read to mean anything at all.
