Drama has no place in the audio forums[full stop] I know of several very knowledgeable members who no longer post here because of hic. I cleaned out my pm's the other day. In 3 pages only 5 pms were not from or about him.
OT is different, you come here at your own risk.
FWIW, I haven't banned anyone in the almost 7 years we've been here.
He cares more than some realize ! He took psychology 1rst year in college ( graduated H.S. @ 17 ) so 18 yrs old , trying to learn [ Jane Goodall & countless others , explain "LIFE" for all to see/ignore ].
Would he understand "mob rule" , what would he make of collecting information "about everyone" using devices sold to unsuspecting public ? Has he ever 'crossed the line' ? Will he ever just "shut up" . . . How does ignore button work ? What is a" marketeer " ? Can people be "led" ? How does studying 'any & everything' become important ? . . . ?
Did he see a "Need" in 7th grade ( no diver on swim team ).
Did he go to library and read a book , thus teaching himself to dive [ getting a trophy for most points contributed to team ] ? Did he throw trophy away/in garbage ? Why would he play chess against any and all comers ( in 7th grade )? Could he beat the number one player in the high school , repeatedly , without being on chess team ? Did he hang out with freaks/jocks/nerds ?
Why did he do a 3/4's flip off High School into snow ? What is a snowshoe & how does it work ?
I do use rationalization , especially when "I've paid to much for my "Whistle" , if you know what I mean'.?
Brakes "on" , standing on pedal and Thank You , again 'Holmz' ~✓ "Thelma and Louise" syndrome/mindset !
