20. Red Herring
Hi SimpleTrend,

It is sad that a man is dead, and good that the F.B.I. is working to clean up problems in his company, but it the link that brought us to this story just isn't there. It is pure conjecture.

Numerous posts with this link have been posted and it's hard not to read them, but I urge anyone looking at any posts that lacks coherency and send you off investigating tons of inferences to consider that it might be the goal of the writer to spin you in circles and waste your time.

This post is a great example. It seriously lacks clarity of thought, and takes a ton of time to get through, especially if you start trying to verify facts or work through the links.

Stay sharp. Stay focused. :) Does the writer of this post give us anything more than conjecture to back his claims? Why the long post with tons of links to go through, when the writer did not take the time to organize the data coherently or offer a summary of the findings? This post leaves many more questions than answers.

Warmly,

George
