It's an open forum.  Bryan can come off a bit harsh, but it's because
his head is jammed with a lot of info... it's not his intent (hope
he doesn't mind me speaking on his behalf).  I really don't know
Bryan apart from all the participating he does on groups world
wide.

We do have a moderator to try to make sure there aren't any
directed personal attacks (and to make sure the content doesn't
stray too far away... which perhaps this thread is now).

Everyone has  opinions and yours are just as important as
Bryan (or anyone else who may have replied).... it's a forum.
With the tech sector being hit hard, we'll see a lot more
arm chair quarterbacks and a lot more tension and a lot more
short fuses... we all have to work harder to be more patient
with each other (that's directed at everyone, not just those
involved in this thread).

Personally... I love a good conspiracy theory...

The Prez
