"I am very passionate about what I do and try to keep it as accurate as
possible. When games and fraud is perpetrated by those who do not care about
the science or collectors, I get upset and tend to be vocal.
If I seem too quick to reply, or type a single word in haste or anger, I
apologize to all who are offended by my posts. I think it is important to keep
it real, and really keep it honest and accurate!
I believe it is part of my responsibility to keep it real and to give notice to
those who do not!"

And that's why I have a great deal of respect for you and I'm pretty sure there
are plenty of others who feel the same (indeed, I know this for fact)
Trust is everything to collectors as we do not have access to our own testing
labs and your efforts to maintain integrity in a business where the material is
so valuable benefits science and collectors alike.
Greed is a powerful motivator. Maybe it is this that causes some dealers to act
out of haste. But then maybe it's not. I am fortunate that I do not have the
wolves at my door. *****
I applaud the efforts of those who endeavour to assist science, improve the
reliability of data for collectors, especially at their own cost. I find
philantropy rather inspiring and the world needs more of it.
And if I'm talking out of turn, I'm not sorry. Get over it. I'm standing up for
a guy that I believe is doing it the right way.

same collection of short sentences this way...

An entirely different mood suggesting "all people are fundamentally bad".
I prefer my rather naive sounding original.
