I agree with both of you, and know of exatly the companies you speak. Most of the "repeat offenders" you speak of are people somehow related in the science field(BK a prime example), they are not the companies buisness people, and their fortay lay not in giving speehes or selling produts, their train of thought almost childlike in nature. Many of the most brilliant minds in history were equally famous for their bizzare eccentricities, does that mean they should have been ignored, their contributions thrown to the wind.
I am sure the owners of these companies(who rarely speak btw,Rich gaspari,lee labrada,connelly,Phillips)
could silence these scientist but, personally my purpose on these boards is to learn, as it is a passion of mine, and putting up with annoying banter is well worth the price for the knowlede
these "eccentric" have helped me to attain
I would like to add that this board is absolutley head and shoulders above the rest as the level of respect is unchalanged by similar boards, I have never talked muh on the net, and would like to thank each and everyone of you for makin me feel welome, this is the ONLY forum i contribute to
