Bobert....

Well, I been sayin that for a LONG while and not just in my posts... in PMs and emails. I could cite even more examples of stuff I said that seem to get turfed aside or ignored and then brought up again by others as brand new but I expect that's on accounta people need to absorb things slowly... think about them a bit... ruminate... chew that cud and see if it tastes good... pick da bones outta dat fish an see if they can get n down dere troat eh me zon?

I had what I would call a run in with a VERY good friend of mine here at Mudcat that I respect to the nth degree about this exact issue and he was one of several others by PM and/or email. I posted about it... again, it was ignored.

But, I am glad it was brought up again.

So... like I said in previous posts, I can't lead any movement (as you asked) to wake up you Yanks because I am a Canuck. It's up to you Yanks to stop your fucking BULLSHIT weening and get the job done. Fer fuck sake... this is a blues and folk site FULL of wise and sage people who have ACCESS to OUR collective knowledge, wisdom and expertise... from computer whizzers to poets to sages to musicians to... you NAME IT! Ya wanna save children from being shot? Type.

TYPE! POST! GET THE FUCKIN JOB DONE! And stop weening and sayin ya "Can't".

The keyboard is mightier than the sword.
