Well, Joe. I only think that's what it might look like on the surface.

I believe I have made some intelligent contributions to the forum, have tried to be helpful with my extreme knowledge of American country music and guitars above the border. Below the border, it is truly amazing how many posts have followed mine starting off "I actually agree with Martin Gibson on____________." I do get plenty of PMs telling me they enjoy what I write and how I lay it out without pulling no punches. Many have revelled in some of the things I have said to some people.

I have made some pretty interesting acquaintances here.

I don't really know what you want to do about me, Joe. Is it better to come in like many regulars have obviously done as "guests" to insult my wife and family? Or that it gives them the right as "guests" to give me an anti-semetic slam?

I have posted consistently as Martin Gibson. I have made some mistakes like most everyone here. I have also said some things that I would say again in a New York minute. My politics are not typical middle aged folksinger. So what? Why don't we all just talk about Barney the Dinosaur?
