I just got back from the Winston Salem knife Show. I appreciate Rich's clarification of his comments and you other guys(AND GAL) comments also. In no way do i feel other people are inferior in intelligence if they disagree with my views. I will admit some of my views are far from mainline which is not bad ,but perhaps my presentation turns some people off. I think i do better face to face than on a computer. There are many intelligent people on this forum,but i do understand the need for proof. Sometimes proof is many, many pages of documents that could never get to see the light of day for one reason or another. But i sure enjoy this firing line forum!
