A huge amount of press?

Are you totally out of your mind?

Most of the "press" is by you, about you. And the postings I read
are mostly supportive of your efforts.

I am beginning to think that you may have some mental problems.


Heh. No doubt. Most have noted that before now...

However, I note that some of the threads occasioned by our
commentaries have gone over 70 posts; most seem to make it to a half
dozen almost without notice and many get into double digits.

I call that a lot of press.

And, I agree, many are supportive. There are, however, those which
are not. Yet, as noted, in most cases where there's information
included, rather than just ad hominem, I look and learn. Most times
I've already done it, but in the interest of trying to limit my
already rampant logorhhea, have not mentioned it, and to respond to
them doesn't further the discussion, particularly when my access is
limited.

Thus, before I even saw the suggestion that I post about a boring
trip, this (the subject line above) went up. I think that prolly
qualified...

Skip, the nutcase...
