I only received the mail as a forward from a froward ... you know. The type
of mails that go 5x around the globe.

I'm simply interpreting
Martin's post. Of course, he provided no real evidence about the origin of
the email, so any such claim on his part (intended or not) would be empty.

you have to take my word that I received the mail with the quoted text.

Well, it wasn't an email from me, I'll tell you that much.

Quite frankly, the video page has gotten WAY out of hand. I now spend
about 30 minutes per day -- which is 29 minutes more than I've got so
spare -- maintaining that page, with new submissions coming in every
day. I don't promote the page, and never have -- but pilots are a
tight-knit group. Once they take a liking to something, they post it
EVERYWHERE.

And some of the "spotters" (as the regulars call themselves) are just
fanatical! In a video description I posted that an aircraft was
taking off from the USS Ticonderoga when, in fact, it was off the USS
Oriskany. JESSSUSSS H. YOU-KNOW-WHO -- you'd have thought that I had
killed the fire chief, or something. I got email from all over the
world about that one.

Take a look at the video entitled "AC-130 over Mosul -- NOT". That
video has generated intense interest, with half the folks saying "that
ain't a Spectre in action", the other half saying "it's helicopter
gunships" -- and the OTHER other half saying it's a mixture of both. My
technical advisor has said it's not, so I changed the title -- and
****ed off half of the US military...

Actually, what got the thing rolling was when our webpage was posted as
a "Cool Site" in some British magazine. From that point on, the videos
have just come in like crazy.

But it's fun. If only it took less time.
