Honey said in response to queen: Ms.Queen posted part of the verbatim transcript of Mary's call to BOB BIRNKER'S [sic] radio talk show. Here is one example of BOB BRINKER interrupting Mary--unless you believe that people always end questions (statements) this way.d to queen And then honey proceeded to post another part of the transcript that she apparently liked better, but was strangely unrelated to the comment that I had posted. I believe it was yaetmo that questioned my comment that Brinker had made a comment to Mary that was similar to the point dija made, relative to why Mary wanted a "black or white" answer to her question of selling the Qs OR the Vanguard. I proved that Brinker had indeed made a very similar comment and questioned Mary as to why it had to be one or the other. Nice try at changing the subject, Ms. Honey, but the subject was not whether Brinker ever interrupted, but whether he had suggested that the decision didn't need to be about "one or the other" to Mary. In fact, I believe I have said more than once that Brinker does indeed interrupt his callers, as 99% of call-in talk show host DO. Honey said: Now here are my questions: 1. What was Mary trying to say that BOB BRINKER prevented by interrupting her in a loud voice. What was Mary "trying to say"?-- Mind-reading. "loud voice"--opinion. 2. Why did BOB BRINKER answer questions that Mary wasn't asking? He gave her pertinent questions to ask herself, and gave her his opinion that it would be to her own benefit if she'd think about doing a "proportionate" sale to raise the money. None so blind as they who will not see. 3. Is BOB BRINKER honest and trustworthy? Would seem so for the most part. Just like most of us, not perfect. Matter of OPINION, obviously.

Here is one example of BOB BRINKER interrupting Mary--unless you believe that people always end questions (statements) this way.>> --The interruptions you refer to are the normal way people speak to each other--especially on the phone on a talk show. Brinker was NOT trying to prevent her from saying anything,and he never raised his voice to stop her from saying anything. <<Now here are my questions:>> --For someone who won't answer questions, you sure ASK a lot of them! <<1. What was Mary trying to say that BOB BRINKER prevented by interrupting her in a loud voice.>> --Nothing significant, and he did not interrupt her in a loud voice. Geez, honey. Brinker gets upset at lots of callers, but he never got upset at Mary. Than was actually as nice, helpful and friendly as brinker ever gets. <<2. Why did BOB BRINKER answer questions that Mary wasn't asking?>> --Probably because he wanted to promote himself a little at the same time he was helping Mary. <<3. Is BOB BRINKER honest and trustworthy?>> --He's every bit as honest and trustworthy as you and your co-bashers. Believe me, if any objective person could hear this call on tape and then read YOUR posts about it, he would have nothing good to say about YOUR honesty!
