Hi Darrell

I too would like to see George Roberts come back to the KBB. However, I too agree that only 15% of what he brought to the board was useful. And far be it from me to bitch about someone getting off track at times, but, I just can't see that the 85% of Ranting and Abuse, or the attacks on new folks was in any way worth that lowly 15% of advice.

I would like to see George come back when "maybe" 85% of his comments could be of some sort of constructive aid to others and maybe just the 15% could be casual ranting. That would be more towards the norm that I see by others and myself.

It had gotten to where anything with George's name in it more than once was all garbage on both His part And of those that were drawn into his arguements. Not that they weren't correct, but the futility of it all was a total waste of time.
I would just click on it and then close it to get it off my to read list. No Time for it.

As to his sense of humor, I don't believe I ever noticed it. Most all I ever heard was Sarcasm, maliciousness(?), egotism and so on. None of which I believe are needed or wanted on the KBB.

Again, I would like to see him back for his knowledge and adivce, but not at the price of all his abuses. There are too many others here, that are only too willing to offer their advice with a :), and mean it.
