Excel, that you were hassled like that only means that there are lowlifes around who don't have a clue. It's more than regrettable that this happened; it's a downright shame. I feel certain that by far the majority of our board read your posts respectful of your right to air your differences with the company and of your opinions, no matter our differences (if any) with your posts. Speaking personally, the first time I heard you yell that "the emperor isn't wearing any clothes", I was somewhat bemused, but continued to read your posts to see where they were going. In time, I realized that they contained more than a kernel of truth in them - as did others as you seemed to lead a mounted charge against NVC, butressed by other s/h's comments in support - in varying degrees - of your principal suspicions/allegations. I'd say that the index of suspicion of the company has been raised by more than a notch as a result of your (and Spoke's) writings, for which we _ or, speaking for myself alone, I - owe you a debt of gratitude.
