Barry,

I agree with your assessment,

but when he says this: "...who refuse to seller for anything less than the best," what does "seller" mean? (I'm guessing he meant "settle".) And why doesn't that sentence have a period at the end?



When he says this: "...there are select number of items that we are actively pursuing.", why can't he get the singulars and plurals of the verbs and nouns to agree?




When he says this to Rob: "We suspect that you and your fellow cross-dressers will soon
form a "board of your own.", why does he think Rob will quake at being called a "cross-dresser"? (Not that there's anything wrong with that!)



When he says to Leon: "You are aware, of course, that perjury is a criminal offense.", what is that suppossed to mean? Does he really not know the difference between libel (or even slander) and perjury? Does he see the distinction between the civil and criminal court systems.


When he emails death threats to board members (Raise your hand if you've gotten one! Rob D? Dan B? Myself? Anyone else?), does he realize how ignorant that makes him look?


When he goes out of his way to belittle the very people he's hoping to sell him things, is that good business?


As I said to you this morning, I agree with Jeff P. I usually appreciate most of Bruce's posts, even if I don't agree with them. They stop and make you think. They encourage debate. But a lot of his stuff comes off as poorly thought out, as well as poorly written. There is nothing sadder than an individual trying to sound intelligent and sophisticated, coming off as uneducated. Don't get me wrong. I'm no high brow snob. I don't care how well someone writes or speaks. I take people as they are, but don't try to use big words and fancy terms when you can't construct a simple sentence.
