I know I said I wouldn't say any thing else, but I need to set the
record straight. I did a little research to find out how that "Joe
Spencer Wrote" got on my e-mail. And here is how it happened.
On 8/18/2009 at 11:34am Joe Spencer wrote the e-mail below at the bottom
of the page. I tried to attach a copy of it but it was rejected as an
unapproved attachment, twice.
In his e-mail the first paragraph was quoted from a previous lister and
the second paragraph are Joe's words. I used the reply function to add
my thoughts. I use Thunderbird. When the reply function is used
Thunderbird AUTOMATICALLY adds the name of the sender of the previous
e-mail was with the words "Sender Wrote" at the beginning of what is
being responded too. In that case it was "Joe Spencer Wrote". It does it
every time regardless of who the previous sender was. I performed
several tests. Unfortunately, it didn't recognize that the first part
of Joe's e-mail was actually a quote from another sender and assumed it
was all from Joe. And that's how it happened.
Joe, I don't understand why you let it bother you so bad and raised such
a stink about it. There was actually nothing wrong with what you were
accidentally quoted on. In fact the guy had so good questions that
really haven't been answer yet. It wasn't like you were quoted on saying
you were for "Obama Health Care" or something similar. Now that would
have pissed me off. You jumped to the conclusion I purposely and
deliberately mis-quoted you. You could not have been wronger. Then you
said things to and about me you really shouldn't have. Basically in so
many words you called me a lier and stupid. You really took the low
road. You should be ashamed, you don't know me. If you did you would
know I would never do anything like that. I feel like you owe me an
apology.
I've been posting on this list for several years attempting to share my
experience and knowledge. Those of you who know me know I never say
anything negative or put down any one's ideas or thoughts. I certainly
have not called people lairs or stupid. I prefer to make friends not
enemies. It's a shame we have to always be so careful what we write
because some people like Joe get bent out of shape for the simplest
reasons. I really try to chose my words very carefully. I read and
re-read my posts before I send them. I only re-read what I write. We
all need to realize that none of us are professional word smiths and we
do screw up and things just don't come out like you want them to. And,
if it hits you wrong, just let it pass and move on. So Joe, like I said
before even though I didn't intentionally quote you, I meant no offense
and if you can't accept that, then there is nothing else I can say to
you. I do believe it time for both of us to let it rest.
Take care, Larry N1345L
COPY OF JOE'S E-MAIL OF 08/18/2009
"Iam about ready to put dual sticks in my 701. You cut the Y stick off
at the connecting point, then weld a 24 inch tube from left to right.
Then weld two upright sticks on top of the horizonial tube. I assume you
put the elevator in zero position then weld the upright sticks. Iam
told that the upright sticks should be moved forward about 20 degrees
before you weld them."
The thing that bothers me about this arrangement, if I understand it
correctly(and I haven't seen a drawing) is that the grip is offset from
the pivot...so when moving it left to right you get a bunch of vertical
travel too. Maybe in practice it isn't noticeable, but I don't like the
idea of it...kinda weird seeming, like the rest of the plane. Certainly
not for the purists. I'm sticking with the Y

The reason Joe got p****d is that HE chooses his words carefully TOO, and
because you were negligent in deleting extraneous stuff from the post, he
got quoted as saying stuff he didn't agree with , much less SAY. I would
have said the same thing, pay attention and you're the one that needs to
apologize.

I dunno who's right or wrong here, but there's been a lot of awfully good
posts on various subjects by everyone concerned here. It would be a shame
to lose the input of good people over a disagreement like this.
I think its time to let this topic fade away, everyone kiss and make up, and
move on. There are lots of good topics coming up that we all need advice
on, and everyone's different thoughts and ideas are appreciated by us all.
The weather is predicted to be great today, so I'm off to recheck all my V
speeds, then repeat it all minus slats, then put on VG's and do it again.
Should be fun, but a long day. I'll report back with the numbers.

Regardless of who is right or wrong or how strong you feel about
something, you don't cross the line by calling people liars or stupid.
You just don't, it's an unwritten rule. And when you do, you owe that
person an apology. Is that too difficult for you to understand?
You see what's below, I guess I would be negligent if I didn't delete
it. Do you get my point?
