A Nice Guy
 
Just spent 45 minutes on the phone with Steve Lare. It's amazing how actual
human contact is so different from computer-mediated communication. I really
believe that if Steve and I were living on the same street, we'd be pretty good
friends. I enjoy Steve's knowledge of radios. I wish there was someone, here,
that I could hang out with that shared my love of radios the way Steve seems
to.

Look, Steve, I'm sorry about the long chain of events that led to us being so
diametrically opposed in this NG. I'm taking you out of my killfile. I want
access to your SW knowledge. I promise not to ridicule your political posts.
Feel free to drop me an email if you think I'm going over the top on anything
else.

Hope we get a chance to talk again.

Well, Al, you COULD help the process of newsgroup detente by letting Telamon
know that I recently bought a Degen from you.....

Great radio and you were a true gentlemen to do business with.

Hi Michael,

Indeed I will verify here that I sold you a Degen 1103. Telemon will
just have to accept it or not. No loss if not. The important thing
is that you like it and find it useful - nothing else.

And since we are all being mushy here, I want to say that even with
the wealth of OT stuff in this group (yes, mine included) I still find
the group to very informative. Thanks to everyone who contributes and
makes this hobby fun for me.

Thanks for the kind words.

Mike,

I'm sure I don't agree with either of you on everything and don't expect
you to agree with me on all things. However, after reading your message
below I thought I'd pass on something to the group about ol' Steve.

Some time back (? 2 years) I had need of a foot / leg to go on the base
of a Drake R8. I mentioned it on r.r.s. and Steve emailed me that he'd
send me one. He didn't expect anything for it. It was just lying
around his shack and he knew I needed one so he volunteered to send it
to me.

I told you privately, Steve, but now (somewhat late) I'm telling you
publicly. THANKS for the R8 foot! :-)

Al

Michael, there is a lot of virtual butt kicking here on the Internet,
like you say, if most of the folks here met person to person, they
wouldn't think of saying some of the things they do virtually, and would
find they have a lot in common.

Glad you and Steve had a nice chat.

I don't believe it.

I'll give Mikey two weeks and he will be back to his old nonsense of
starting several threads and ranting in off topic political posts a day
and calling me a "neocon" or "right winger" et-cetera.
