I would think an intelligent person could separate the vitriol from the beneficial information that can be found on the forum.

Sure, you can wade through 50 pages of self righteous one sided "it's my way or the highway" I am the only one on the planet that has the big picture and if you disagree you are an idiot posts in order to find one gem of intelligence, but, why? Life is too short.


This profession, job, career (whatever you want to call it) does not define me. It's a job, not a life.

50 pages eh? Responses like that are the type that get hammered on the forum.

I bet you can palm a basketball as well.

The "regulars" on that forum do more to divide this pilot group than anything management can do. It's best to seclude them in their little forum world where they could live out their inconsequential existence.

Your kind of proving my point with every response .. it's almost like you're personally affected by someone that doesn't want to listen or doesn't agree with you. That's fine .. seek some sort of self validation through the forums, don't seek it, go fishing, whatever. It makes no difference in my world. Have a great day .

Information from reliable sources such as duly elected MEC and LEC officers is a great thing. Half truths, rumours, conjenctures, innuendo, opinions and the like CAN BE dangerous if not recognized for what they are. Not being able to distinguish between the difference IS dangerous.

Nope. I could care less.

What discredits you is your statement that you have to "wade through 50 pages to find one gem of intelligence." Sounding a little scorned there and a gross exaggeration.

Off to catch my 45 lb large mouth lunker. Ttfn

Just because they are "duly" elected does not guarantee they are forthcoming and agenda free. Always question who said it, what they said, and why they said it.

Now, should I use a Lunkerhunt Bento Bait or Uncle Wesley's Minnow?
