[Rhodes22-list] Michael's Fashion

[Bill Effros]

Bob,

There is no way you could have replied in a fashion similar to Michael's.  It's a one of a kind fashion, and once one becomes accustomed to it, no one would have it any other way.  

With regard to the original message it seems to me we have had this problem with this same individual in the past.  We have had problems with other individuals coming on too strong.  Many have backed off, others have passed on.  Either way, I'm with you and Michael.

Bill Effros

Michael:  I was getting ready to respond in a similar fashion to yourself.
Like let's make this educational.  What is the proper weight loading for an
R22?  What other steps were taken for safety of crew... life vests on, etc.
Instead fnutters went nuts.  Too bad too sad that a lesson for all
deteriorated into name calling.
