Reid,
Call me an idiot, I don't mind <g>. Actually, the only reason I signed up here is not for investement advice. Like I said, I friend of mine told me about this place, told me some crazy stuff was going on with him, with you, with alot of people on some parking lot thread and etc. I've been lurking, but missed anything on the parking lot. I will try and locate that thread later and check it out.
I am almost afraid to tell you who my friend is, because you and he are obviously not the best of buddies anymore<g>, and I sure don't want to get on your bad side. My friend, Keith, KG4, is a really great guy. I know him personally, not just on the internet. I am going to tell you the same thing I told him. I will not pick sides in your dispute, but I do wish yall could kiss and make up <g>. Your two very fine people, who unfortunatly aren't seeing eye to eye on some things. I will say this about Keith, he does speak his mind, and he doesnt back down if he feels he is correct or is trying to get a point across. Sometimes people take this the wrong way. He is just a very determined individual and he doesn't back down when cornered. I really have no idea what yalls dispute is about. I lurked, but so many posts were deleted, it is hard to tell who was saying what to whom, or why<g>. From what Keith tells me, he was upset because he felt that somehow you were being given special treatment over others. Something about you were allowed to post whatever you wanted, but others could not. I have no idea what that's all about, and frankly don't care. I don't post on message boards, or very little anyway, and only signed up here at ihub to pop in and say hello to you and your family and to let you know that Keith is really a great guy, just as you are. I always lurked and followed you and always respected you. For that matter, so did Keith. he used to talk about you during the AOL days saying how much respect he had for you. Thats what led me to lurking and learning over on SI's Dell and AOL threads, plus your own threads. This is also why I found it so surprising last night when he told me, vaguely, what was going on with you two.
To close, I guess all I want to say is I wish both of you would just let bygones be bygones and become friends again, because as far as I can tell, you are both two class acts, and there is no reason you should be on opposing sides of any kind of fight or dispute.
Wishing you the best, and off to find this parking lot place. Keith said I won't believe my eyes when I get there. I doubt it can be that bad.
Greg
