"knew someone that was, implying that therefore you were qualified."
No Hoot
I knew several people who were there who I trust - that doesn't make me an expert
I bother because I have become extremely tired of not being able to discuss what I believe to be the valuable lessons to be learned from the revival because of misinformation, backbiting and almost necrophobic hatred of one of its leading participants
I have insulted nobody regarding the origins of songs - I have on occasion reacted to personal insults aimed at me that you have obviously chosen to ignore
I ragard behaviour like yours as typical of the backbiting that has naused up any chance at discussing the revival - yours dishonest and extremely partisan accusation is a prime example of such behavior
