The comments below were NOT directed at a Tom (I think Ben wrote the post I 
replied to). I don't know anything about Profittaker. I only know he is right 
most of the time. Therefore I think his opinion, whatever it is based on, is 
worth something. Just me though. Some people need to know exactly what he is 
doing. I respect that. Others need to respect the fact a track record is 
enough for some to consider his forecasts quite a useful tool--- regardless 
of his methodologies. As to why not share?--- the answer is it takes many 
years and many thousands of dollars to  learn what he has--- giving it away 
for free would be a bit much to ask. He is already giving me a "hand up". I 
personally would not feel right about then asking for a "hand out".

 I think the only point Tom was making is this:  if you are going to make 
predictions, why not share the methodology that allowed
 you to make the prediction?  Don't get defensive, just tell us why we should 
believe the forecast.  For example, what is
 Profittaker?  What methodology does it use?  We are not asking for trade 
secrets, just some background information.  Thanks.
