Bill, most of the people that spout crap against me weren't my friends to begin with. The only one of ANY of these people who have either an alternate perspective or contrary opinion, that I respect is Nate Downes. Sure Nate has been somewhat imflammatory and has his own position to think about with Genesi but I still consider him a friend.
People are allowed to have opinions. If their opinions run tangent to my own, that's fine. Time will tell who knows what they're talking about or if there are other motives for their rhetoric.
As for me being paid, that's simply no one's business but mine and Amiga's. If someone other than this pair wants to know, let them summon Amiga's records. My finances are none of your business.
To the auction, I simply uttered one rather tongue-in-cheek comment, which I repeat AGAIN since you people can't get it through your thick skulls, "it is used equipment." If you took something else home from that, that's YOUR problem, not mine. Maybe you need to get a sense of humor to read my reply back then as it was meant to be read. I have a sense of humor, if you don't like that, that's your problem, not mine.
As for my honesty.. If you don't believe what I say, you don't have to. In that case, you're the one with religious passion that's reading more into someone's comments than is written.
