"Holger Stephan" wrote: in imposition of wills situations I still think that the sagest advise came from W.C.Fields the comedian. "never argue with a fool." Education for how to deal with fools in real life? Is this what we need RAH for? We've seen the accident rates Ron Wanttaja posted. Whatever the causes are, building and flying experimental planes is taking a high toll on our group. You may say that is Darwin at work, purging us from the idiots. But there are almost always families involved, and it makes a bad impression on those who have little interest in keeping the skies open for idiots. And it makes finding adequate insurance a challenge. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ You have hit on something solid, Holger. As a messenger, I've faced everything that I've ever been accused of and MORE. Bruce Frank's personal attack on me is just the latest derision to "kill the messenger". What is sad, he could use what I have to share more than anyone else here that I know. Perhaps, it's time for me to heed W.C. Fields advice more than anyone... or be the bigger fool. When/if I do, the loss will not be mine. If I screw the pooch tomorrow, my safety record speaks for itself and I'm rewarded with insurance rates that reflect my record. Let the challengers do their thing until there is nothing left but widows, orphans and self insurance. I've lived a safe and sane approach and delivered the information, but apparently my recommendations are too expensive for the tastes of the omniscient wannabee herd. TOO EXPENSIVE? I'm sure weeping widows, orphans and aviation insurance companies can hardly wait to enjoy the cost savings. Barnyard BOb -- over 50 years of successful flight |

This has been brewing for some time. I now realize what he thinks of me and so does the rest of the world.... and vice versa. Most know the difference between friends and loose lipped acquaintances airing dirty laundry on the net. I appreciate your attempt at peacemaker, tho. Thanks, Robert R.

Never have I heard BOb say that you should not post your opinion. He is very set, and perhaps stubborn in his views, and sometimes gets a bit obnoxious and overbearing, and tells people that their views and opinions are full of sh*t, but he never has tried to censor anyone. Add to that, the fact that he is just plain wrong about auto conversions, ........., g -- Jim in NC |
