It's amazing just how much ego these electronic "rooms" can hold.

What's wrong with ego Scott? Have you seen any of the things these
guys
have developed?



Did you read the snippet I quoted?

Nothing is particularly wrong with ego, but I find humility to be a more
attractive characteristic. Herter certainly was proud of his stuff--
probably justifiably-- but that doesn't mean I'd like to be locked up in
a room with him while he's spouting off, either.

There are probably millions of bass fisherman who never heard of this
stuff who will never miss it. Others know about it, like me, and choose
not to buy it. If another fishing product weren't invented for another
century, millions of people would still enjoy fishing--even fishing for
bass.

For what its worth, my rig isn't that far away from a cane pole and
safety pin, and I value my recreational (that's the "rec" in ROFB,
remember?) time on the water at least as much, if not more, than many of
the fishermen here.

He's a big boy. If he wants to shill his stuff in a free forum where
some find it objectionable, let him stop whining when people choose to
express their displeasure. Personally, I don't think he's achieving
anything more than a one-line statement in his signature would, and maybe
less.
