[Off-topic] MEXP Issue

JQP: Diana and I were talking about Slider's pending return in light of his "promise" over the MEXP issue (LOL!). What we were not discussing was your latest tit for tat. I clearly stated that he would be allowed to post here as long as he abides by the Terms of Use, irrespective of the MEXP issue. Please don't confuse the two. TIA.

While Slider undoubtedly has his character flaws, this is true for a lot of exceptional people. I have profited greatly from his extensive knowledge of the enrgy sector.

OT (Slider/John Q) - So you're not going to put up with his BS, but you're not going to post much either? Why go thru all the trouble then...out of spite?

>> As for my posting, that is likely to taper off a lot. I have decided that retirement leaves me with too much free time, and have decided to reenter the private consulting practice. <<

You cannot prevent private emails through SI and you can use the ignore feature in SI. Taking it to the top levels in SI punishes us all.

Overall Slider's input was quite good. He ridiculed me in the past too, but I think since I didn't dwell on the matter (on the person) he let it go.

Did you have a right to complain? Probably, I don't know without confirming all the facts. But it's one thing to complain and another to have him booted off permanently (however, I don't think that's the case).

This board is pretty good when everyone keeps the postings unemotional and professional.
