Hey Frank, I'm honoured you remember me. Had so much fun over the years. I write columns now for some magazines and often draw from your advice and apply it to life in general. Raising monitors is not much different than general wisdom of life, as in theory vs reality and what actually works in the real world, hahaha. At any rate, no, the recent situation I alluded to was not positive for so many people. It involved someone who conned many people I know out of a lot of money. It's close to a million dollars at this point. Everyone keeps saying how shocked they are this guy who was "so nice and wonderful could do such a thing." Well, in one post about 4 years ago in a post regarding untrust worthy people, I remember you telling me that that is how con artists work - they gain your trust first. Now I'm the one explaining to all these people what has happened - some despicable con artist gained their trust, then went for the kill. Another FR lesson.
