You're right. I went back and looked up those words in webster's and I was wrong - I apologize. I was using both words incorrectly. I guess I never really knew what the definitions of those words are. I've been using them in the wrong way my whole life.



>Thank you, I only ask that you STOP exaggerating.



**My original post was IN REPLY to Eric's post that used a little humor to agree with him, then to Brad's post - again humor to convey MY OPINION, then we had our stupid little dance.**



It is funny that you can't see it. You have maligned (see, I didn't use smear here - I had to look up malign to make sure I used that correctly - thanks for the reality check) Dan (without proof), me (without proof), Ric Blair (without proof - by the way I've seen several profanity laced emails regarding him authored by rpelez), Dave Doherty (acknowledged by him, but not an intentional oversight). You are one of the least trusting individuals I have seen. There was never this type of venom in the 70's and 80's. Thank you for infusing that into our hobby.



> You are right about one thing - I can't see the malignment.

Venom? Again you're mis-using your words, so let's review:



Dan Johnson - it is my opinion (and it is a shared, albeit minority opinion) that something is not quite right with his Hueco line.



Glenn Fankhauser - I got news for you, you were "maligned" in that thread about the Study Butte alterna, not in anything I posted unless you're referring to your exclusion from my wc Hueco list, and that is a direct a reflection of the Study Butte thrashing that you received from Ricky Green and Joe.



Ric Blair - please foward me those profanity laced emails that I supposedly authored. Just one please...maybe I wrote one in my sleep. Ric has had a few issues surface in 2009. I was involved with two, the Juno Rd used in Guess That Locale, and another alterna. Then, there was the Mattison>Blair>Sweetman Lajitas/277 debacle which didn't involve me, and finally the Nine Mile/Doherty affair which again didn't involve me. I think these events speak for themselves...and the conclusion I and others drew from these events is that Ric was too overwhelmed to keep things straight.



David Doherty - When Joe Forks says careful when you bend over he'll screw you bigger than Dallas, then I'm not going to put Doherty in my trustworthy column. I assume you are referring to his exclusion from my verifiable wc Hueco list.



**Again, I will repeat something that apparently a lot of people have problems with; FOR ME - I will not be convinced that the Hueco line producing speckled offspring with triple alternates is pure until someone other than Dan Johnson, Dan Doherty or you collects another documented wc Hueco with those traits. **



Fine. Keep in mind - that is FOR YOU. You do not speak for the entire alterna community. Do you really think that you do?



> Glen, how do you figure I think I speak for the entire alterna community. I keep saying that it is only MY OPINION - LOL!



It is VERY interesting that both Dan and I have been included in your list. Can you explain why that is? Have I ever misrepresented an animal to you or anyone? Has Dan? Your bias has no basis - do you see that?



> For Dan it's obvious - it has to be someone independent of his line. For you, again it's a reflection of that Study Butte thread.



I used to be a more trusting person, but then Joe got a hold of me - lol. Keep in mind that I dealt with two misrepresentations this year - the Limpia produced by Milleniusz Spanowicz and the Juno produced by Ric. So, I'm extremely cautious now.



Robert
