Good lord. Yes, I seem to remember reading that as well. But I especially like
his comments, such as the one about few responses to his website, yet he
"knows" many people are having problems. I wonder why they won't join his
campaign. His comments about "shoddy products" is indicative of a paranoid
nature. There are rarely "shoddy products" in the marine industry. There's no
money in it. Perhaps he meant to say that there's flawed products out there?
I hope he and FP can come to some agreement, though his adversarial stance
makes that unlikely.
Now if someone would take Hunter to court for making ugly sailboats, then we'll
be getting somewhere!

Quite often when I read the replies I feel like I'm playing that kids
game where you tell someone a story and they repeat it to the person
behind them, etc, etc and when the story gets to the end of the line it
bears little resemblance to what happened. And its for this reason that
I don't want to keep discussing point issues.

I also have to laugh about the legal and mental health advice being
issued. In the following post we have bobsprit claiming that I have a
"paranoid nature" because I believe that there are some shoddy marine
products out there! Oh my! I guess I should claim that Bob suffers
from delusional tenancies if he doesn't believe that! :-)

I also had Doug Dotson claiming that I may be making libelous statements
about Fischer Panda. The definition of libel is "A false publication,
as in writing, print, signs, or pictures, that damages a person's
reputation." I can assure you that I've been very careful to make sure
that all of my comments are completely true to the best of my knowledge.
Basically I've presented the history of my ownership as well as
observations related to Fischer Panda's response. While these
statements may damage their reputation, they're based upon the truth and
thus aren't libelous.

I can assure you that I'm not having fun with this, but I'm heavily
vested in this. The general problem is that companies can outspend the
little guy in court and most of these things just go away because people
don't have the financial ability to see them through. This is a case of
where they ran into the wrong guy. Personally I like to see the little
guy challenge the corporations and hopefully win. As I've said over and
over, I'm not doing this for personal gain, I just want to be made whole
again. If RI law didn't provide for this I probably wouldn't have
pursued it. The only people who are making out in this are the lawyers.

Usenet was never intended to look like your average boat
magazine.....a sales brochure.

Thank you for posting your problems with Fischer Panda. The guys
slamming you are regulars that have been here for years and have no
regards for the thousands of lurkers who come and go that never post
anything because of shyness or a fear of being slammed against the
chart table by the posters who've been here for years.

That guy who started watching this newsgroup 2 weeks ago, I'm sure,
would thank you for posting here if he dared absorb the wrath of your
detractors. He sits silently at his terminal saying, "God I'm glad I
don't have one of those gensets." You've done him a great service.

Let 'em bitch. It rolls right off. This newsgroup is OPINIONS and
everyone is entitled to theirs. Those loyal to the company, a
phenomenon that has always fascinated me because it's rediculous,
those employed by the company (especially those who are provocateurs
attacking company critics as part of their jobs on usenet) will
continue their relentless attacks on anyone to posts something you'd
never see in a boat magazine....the sales brochure with the rosey
glasses....

If not here, where else would they find out YOUR OPINION or mine.....

3600 planes with transponders are burning 8-10 million
gallons of kerosene per hour over the USA. R-12 car air
conditioners are responsible for the ozone hole, right?

Come on, Bob. Everyone over in ASA is aware that you know very little and are
a novice when it comes to all things boat-related. Over here you sound like a
corporate shill for FP. You really should add a legend to the bottom of your
posts saying that the views expressed are the author's only and the author
usually doesn't know what he is talking about.
