I'm curious: It's clear that you have some sort of personal issue with
Dudley, but WTF does it have to do with rec.aviation.piloting?

I don't know. I'm not the one who made this thread. What does tracing an
IP have to do with piloting?

He's given me some great advice here that has been very useful toward my
IFR, Commercial and CFI training and understanding, and I have no doubt
that he's been a great help to other folks on the forums because they've
said so.

I just don't see it. All I ever see him post is either pointless one
liners, or a 5 paragraph post filled with convoluted sentence structures
and odd formal tones to make the post sound smarter than it really is,
but in the end all he ever does is, at best, state the obvious. He's the
perfect example of the type of person who may have done good things in
the past, but has fallen victim to his own hype.

I mean, he wrote his own god damn wikipedia entry for petes sake. He's
the type of person who would instruct in his will to have a monument
build honoring him after he does, paid by his own estate (ala Evel
Knievel).

People like that just amuse me. I think it's fun to mess with them and
watch them try to rationalize their actions. "Oh I didn't write it as a
vanity article, I wrote it as a service to my millions of fans that fill
my fan-club office's mailbox with requests to hear my exciting life
story. Huh? Whats that, someone doesn't like my article and thinks it
should be deleted? Oh well thats OK because it's not really needed
anymore anyways..." Freaking hilarious.


I definately can't say that others here, know what I mean?

You're saying Dudly is the only person here who makes worthwile posts?
