Funny you should ask as I originally had (you figure out which is which) following that line but backspaced over it. They are both crazy and brilliant, although I know that many think Tom is crazy. Me too, in a great way!!

While they are often rambling in nature (I think it's because he thinks faster than he can type), there is always something to take from them if you know where to look. I have spoken to Tom many times on the phone over the years and he is a very smart guy with all kinds of info stored in the vast reaches of that brain of his. He is a loving and doting father of a very creative son and he speaks so fondly of him every time we talk, that is what has endeared me to him, not to mention he always asks about my family and daughters when we speak and remembers things I have told him in the past. Dave Kusumoto is the same way, he just has his thoughts very anally organized, just like me!! I love these two guys who, believe it or not, are very similar in their thirst for knowledge and their use of that knowledge. Both are very kind souls, and while it may "appear" that one is a crazy guy and one is brilliant orator, I am glad to know both of them and consider them friends.

Tom Martin is a brilliant philosopher disguised as a confused memorabilia dealer. Only certain people can see the enlightened being. To most people, he is either invisible or he appears as a wacky clapboard salesman. If anyone wants to criticize Tom, it is actually OK. Adversity only makes him stronger. Strong wind creates strong trees. I wish I knew what he looked like. I imagine he looks like a long-haired Peter Fonda, but that's probably completely wrong. -rk On Jul 2, 2009, at 12:32 PM, [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> wrote: I think Tom Martin is an Enlightened human being...possibly a Bodihsattva. On some days, I find more wisdom and knowledge in his writings (or, ramblings if you prefer) than in all other posts on MoPo combined. Who knows---possibly The Buddha is among us disguised as a movie poster collector named Tom. You may think I'm joking, but stranger things have happened on this planet. Keep posting, Tom. Maybe wherever you "are" is actually something to strive for, not to ridicule. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- It's raining cats and dogs -- Come to PawNation<http://www.pawnation.com/?ncid=emlcntnew00000008>, a place where pets rule!
