Hi Bill,

I am not sure how many members have noticed, but I am regularly and quietly
sharing a few of my stocks most weeks in my Wannabee list. Just watch for
the ones where I mention I own them or have them in my VR Fund. Since I got
threatened by DGO with legal action, I no longer restrict my weekend review
of stocks to lists they provide, and now blend that list with others, so it
is no longer proprietary. But I still limit my personal picks to those at
least $10 or higher as a rule. When I rarely violate this, as I did a little
while ago on DOCC, I normally post that separate.

Re list posting........

As newbie and noncontributor to date, I can see the rationale of the older
and more astute members of the list to not share the results of their hard
work so that others can benefit.

However, IMHO, there would be some benefit to the overall list if the new
members became better stock investors (and subsequently contributors) based
on analyzing the posted stocks. Personally, I have learned a lot  already
by researching  the stocks that are discussed to see if I would buy them
based on my understanding of  the CANSLIM approach.
