Chuck: Reading the list of the posters and some of their comments, it seems
that all of the instruction is going to the choir. It seems all agree with
your point of view except Juan Jimenez. It doesn't look like any kind of
open discussion, but if it makes the participants feel better, I guess
that's reason enough to continue. Although I would like to see the number
of T hangars that could be built with the energy and time spent.
BTW I've been aware of Campbell's reputation for some time and have no
reason to defend him.

Well Chuck, I assume by your reply that something measurably positive is
being created by all of this bashing?

Granted there is some bashing in some of the posts but the point of the
posts
is to instruct not bash for bashing sake. It evident to me that you missed
the
point of the postings. Did you go to http://www.ousterhout.net/ to get
some
background before assuming that there was no positives to all this? Did
you do
any Google searches to get a feel for what this is all about or are you
just
playing newsgroup censor?

In my opinion zoom is a phony and thru the years he has damaged many
peoples
name ,reputation and livihoods, is this OK with you? I would hope not. I'm
sure
the 2 companies he just sued at SnF for non payment of unwanted ads wish
they
could have been informed before doing business with him. That's the
positve
message.


I wish there was as much creative
information about homebuilts here.

There is loads of homebuilt info here and from time to time a zoom thread
will
pop up, run a while and stop .No big deal. Maybe you don't realize that
most of
the people and companies zoom has hurt are deeply involved in the
homebuilt
field. People that he bullied into silence while he had his magazine where
he
controlled the content and never ran a letter to the editor from a lot of
us
defending our positions. His side was the only one heard for a long time.

Only thru the Internet and RAH in particular did those of us who were
zoomed
have a voice. I never knew that there were more then a couple of us who
had been
zoomed until I started posting my story on the net. Then the gates opened
and
the truth about zoom was opened to the light of day. The list of those who
have
been zoomed reads like a "Who's Who in homebuilt aviation" list.



If you look at the relative amount of
postings and the content, the name of the newsgroup might be better
called
"Bashing Practice 101"

Maybe from you seemingly uninformed perspective it may seem that way but I
respectfully disagree with your conclusions.
