And I'll defend your right to take your stupid thinly disguised bash-ad-infinitum and post it anywhere than to this alias. I think we all get the point by now. Sal doesn't need this, he's human and he's doing the best he can. Even if there are problems in his generally excellent business, you don't have to run him and everything he stands for into the ground over and over. Its becoming sadistic. The only thing that may be lacking in Sal's operation, considering the viscissitudes of the trade, might be a polished frontline ordering system. Everything else is as good as can be expected in this hobby or much better. So why don't you focus on the positive? Any perceived negativity comes from Sal's being swamped, not from being a jerk. I can't speak for Sal's business, maybe he needs some help dealing with the phone load, but unfortunately, many people WANT to talk to Sal, and recognize it is a priviledge, as I, for one, do. Sal probably doesn't know exactly how to satisfy all the needs of all his customers. Who knows, maybe NSP will improve and be everything to everyone. Maybe Sal will polish other aspects of his operation as much as he has the points I've already touted. But give him a break. Let him assimilate the swarm of assaults. I think ultimately your negativity or "bad karma" if you will, will come back to you. Your is definiately a slanderous assault, and I hope you really live your life by some moral highgound that entitles you to it, because it does to damage to another human being. I'm sure you are not perfect, and one of these days, just for some error in your ways someone, or many people may rip you an open wound and keep dumping salt in it, like you're doing. One way or another life is certain to give you a lesson in humility, since you take on the role of jealous god with such cavalier disregard, you probably are in serious need of that lesson. -Paul Bob Germano wrote: > > WOW!
