Mises,

I think that you're not as "biased" as you are, like me and most of us, IN THE DARK about what JP is doing with his 21.8 million Tyhee shares!

In this context, I especially sympathize with Strike's cynicisms of JP. There's a list of things JP's said, that were either wrong, inaccurate, misleading or irresponsibly glib. Still, I think he's a "decent" man who's trying to understand the economy and educate us. Not that that would get him off the hook, so-to-speak, with regards to many of the questionable things I feel he's responsible for saying.

He's also a very humble man who's very much aware of his imperfections.

Back to JP's Tyhee shares: We do know that on Feb 13, 09 he wrote me, "The rules for filing the 13-f no longer require reporting certain small cap stocks, foreign bonds, or cash. We still own 21.8 million shares."

And, we also know that he was paid about $17K by Tyhee for his hand in getting TDC financed this Spring.

And, that's it. Except that he's got the reputation for being long. It just wouldn't make sense to me that he'd be selling much before the time when he knows and we know the share price in poised for take-off.

Baires
