Duke,

While in theory a fine idea, has been suggested before in this group without
success. Primary reason is that we are all unique and individual investors,
and don't conform well to a single shopping list. I am certainly an extreme
example, posting a list in my weekly WWW, and rarely interested in any of
them because I am only interested in small and micro cap stocks.

Only another small cap investor would be interested in my favorites, and I
don't share even with them as a rule.

One of the strengths, even beauties, of CANSLIM is the ability to tailor it
to the individual's personal preferences and criteria. Takes experience and
time to learn to do this well, but for those that have accomplished this,
they typically have little interest in someone else's list, as it does not
match their criteria exactly.
