Stu Basore is already in several folks' hall of fame including mine. Once anyone has had the privilege of hearing Stu play it's all over.

Fred, Not only a great picker but a very nice person ta boot! My good friend Garland Dye put his stamp of approval on Stu many years ago and I have found out why over the years. Regards, Fred

Mr.Dave Horner, if MSA NOW has nothing to do with MSA THEN why worry about Mutually Satisfactory Arrangements with people that were screwed. And if the current MSA PRINCIPALS want a place to put $50,000 dollars, how about in the pockets of the people that were cheated 20 plus years ago. Just my opinion.

Dave Horner: Your proposal is one of the most immature, if not infantile, suggestions I've ever seen posted on this Forum. You have many potential MSA customers wanting to know if you guys are up-front, honest, and forthright businessmen. Then you propose a gambling scheme as your approach to convincing them that you are? I wonder if Richard Nixon would have been a better President if when he said, "I am not a crook," added, "And if no one believes me, put up $50,000 and let's bet on it." It also brings to mind Bill Clinton's statement "I did not have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinsky." He could have followed up with, "And if you don't believe me, put up $50,000 and we'll see if mine will even fit into hers."

There is no reason in the world that any depositor, who lost thousands of dollars 20-plus years ago, and got double the money back, would be hesitant to tell anyone. If that is all they got, they would most likely still be complaining. They would have derived about half of what they deserved, based on the 40 cents a current dollar is worth against its value in 1980, and the fact that they lost all its earning power for all those years.

The absolute absurdity of your gambling proposal smacks of the tabloid TV show, "Fear Factor." Your proposal is nearly identical. Why didn't you require the loser to eat a bucket of week-old fish entrails, or use vomit after a weekend of binge drinking as a chip dip? And $50,000? That's chump change and insulting. Why not your home against his?

Your verbiage shows some writing skills, but your ideas are sophomoric. Did you complete high school? …Tom

P.S.: Why didn't you ask Janne Lindgren in Sweden for a copy of Anderson's email of a few months ago. You would learn that Reece told that depositor to get on with his life, and under penalty of a lawsuit, not to show that email to anyone. Also, drop Gary Dirks in Redding, California a note. Ask to see Anderson's reply to Dirks' attorney of 20+ years ago as to why his deposit money would not be refunded. These are two of my closest friends. If they had gotten anything I'd be the first to know. I believe Molberg has provided you with their addresses. You know, I'm beginning to believe that you are as bad of a gambler as you are a spokesman for MSA.

Yessir, right on topic, and with all that I still think Julian should be in everybody's hall of fame, including the one in the basement in St Louis.
