I think the best test would be if you could get every one of the 450 or so
members to contribute their top five stocks (excluding ones they simply got
here). Then rank order the list by frequency of mention. Then get a few
dedicated people to do full, in depth, due diligence and post the results
for discussion.

If only 10 or 20 people participate, the results can be heavily skewed by
one individual's bias or preference.
