Tom, This eff'n computer is a pain and between it and being very busy, I do not have much time for posting, however!!!

I do not subscribe to Ormetal, I do not always agree with Claude, but often do. I respect Claude and his opinions very much. I do agree with those who said things like Claude was in danger of becoming a cult figure, and that it was not healthy to censor contrary opinions to Claude's etc. When too many are all of the same view, without differing opinion it is very easy for every one to fool themselves.

When I post on these boards, I do so behind an alias. If people call me a BSer or whatever, it is no big deal. However, Claude posts under his own name, and Claude makes his living based on his opinions and his integrity. When someone posts, even in jest, with the insinuation that Claude has been bought off or whatever, the hair stands up on the back of my neck! I disagree with Claude! I think this is very serious. I ask Michael to use his head. Question Claude's opinions and ideas, but never question his integrity unless you can prove something. Lurkers or someone just cruising thru could get the wrong impression, and the rumors start! And how does one combat that? We should all be vigilant in matters like this!

Someone else posted that Claude is probably the most uncomfortable with discussion on this subject. I agree!
