<<<BTW - I am wondering why this question was posted on several different sites but not the one that you are associated with. Was it there and I just missed it?? >>>
John,
I was wandering around online and ran across your forum and stripersonline so I thought I'd post the question. I had intended to put it up on Noreast and a couple of others as well but never got there. Instead I got sidetracked by the personal animosity in some of the responses and found myself spending way more time than I had intended answering people's concerns. I spoke with Gene B. (editor) about it and his view of the situation ws basically, forget the forums...it's not worth the aggravation, a perspective I'm becoming more and more inclined to embrace.
I guess my best answer to the folks who crave individual credit as well as payment for any word of wisdom they may utter is: By all means, sit right down today, write an article yourself and send it somewhere so that we may all be enlightened. Surely recognition and wealth will undoubtedly follow close at hand.
It's been an interesting visit to the forum, John. Puts me in mind of an old Hungarian curse: May you live in interesting times.
As I review the commentary one more time I find myself thinking, Good lord, it's not nuclear secrets we're talking about. It's just some stuff that may help somebody out there to catch fish. I'm particularly struck by the way a few folks have decided there's some sort of conspiracy afoot. Sorry guys, there's no grassy knoll. Just a writer doing his job, ever fascinated by the foibles of his fellow man.
