So I understand there are times, hey, people are going to argue. It just detracts from the forum here. It wouldn't hurt any of us to calm down a bit more. Just my 2-cents worth as a "new guy" on the forum (or kind of new....one year anniversary here). Dave, I am a Republican. Most of the folks here are liberal Democrats. I take and give grief because of this. That is the nature of ANY group. But we are talking about someone who can not take any answer but his own. If I or Fortenberry or whomever comes up with a solution to a question, and it is NOT the same as a certain pontificating fool, then all hell is going to break lose. You must know the history of something before you can judge it. We (roff) have witnessed this behavior dozens of times, and some of roff is tired of it and has little tolerance for such further actions. There is never any problem answering fishing questions if Mike Connor is not about. I will have an opinion because of my experiences, person A will have another because of his experiences, and person B will have yet another because of his experiences. We seldom fight about fishing questions - *except* when Mike Connor is involved because he can not stand it for someone to have a different solution to a question. There is not a question you can ask that can not be answered by someone on roff who has *experienced* it. That is the beauty of this place, and it gets along quite well without Mr. Connor. Dave |

I was speaking TO an American and was using politics as an illustration of how some of us do not always get along. And there is something wrong with that? It is a good illustration of how we fight amonst ourselves, sometime very hurtfully, but yet we remain a group of flyfishers who can answer questions and not bicker amonst ourselves. But, when Connor is involved, it is his way or it is no way. Read his recent posts advising Dave (the OP) to not listen to anything anyone has to say on this ng. Surely you know that is a lie, a falsehood. Yes, we fight and we bicker, but we can answer questions (especially from an American fishing American waters) without pontificating pompously about it, with simple answers that anyone can understand. If you do not believe that, then why are you here? Dave Dave |
