WOW! I wouldn't have believed it! Kirk, rushing to daBrink's defense like a linebacker. Kirk where is the love for daBrink these days? How did you turn to the darkside so easily? :)

Yes, this has been key to making people see the truth about Bob. <g> BTW, in order to better serve future converts, was there any specific reason that you decided to read my posts?


Very true. Unfortunately, too many of us came too late to save a good chunk of what we had!

I think it's not just what you say but how loudly and in how many widely read (or heard) forums you can say it. It's a great public service but it needs to cast a much wider net.=============

That old post from Kirk is amazing. Bob really has a strange way with things. He spends so much time and effort (decades really) building up a following and a reputation and then he shoots it (and himself) in the head for no apparent reason.

What is wrong with this guy? I think it's more than just arrogance or ego. There is really something amiss in that head.

BTW, in order to better serve future converts, was there any specific reason that you decided to read my posts? Perseverance.

What really did it... and it does it for many.. is I started to pay attention to what he said! Read on…

People started to ask how to record the show. Being an electronics geek, I figured out some ways to do it and posted it on my site to help build traffic. I usually windsurf when Bob is on or played racquetball in the winter back then so I didn't hear much of his shows. After I started to tape them and listen for about a year, I went over to the dark side. I have a VERY, VERY good memory and that doesn't mix well with his way of doing things. I started to ask Don Lane questions here and was attacked rather than given proper respect as a professor at Berkeley might if I asked a tough question so I KNEW he was not about educating me... but about fooling me and protecting an image.
