It's cool. Just please don't do it again...

You know, both of you guys seem to be pretty articulate writers with some China experience under your belts. You could contribute a lot around here. Try talking about...well, almost ANYTHING else?

Logged in to catch up on reading and found that this thread had gone from one page to six. Started reading with that heavily-editted reply on page one.

Aiii-ya! as they say around here. My first thought was, "RD, you really have your work cut out for you". My second was, "Why haven't you locked the sucker down yet?"

Wild fires are natural phenomena, and sometimes they burn themselves out without doing substantial damage. That seems to be the case here.

JLMB, love your philosophical approach. Stil, EL, love your senses of humour. But you guys already knew that.

We had the fire helicopters scrambled from the very beginning. Infinitely preferable to locking down the thread. th_bj

Personally, I've read the posts and I think both pumped and Nathan Ryan need to take a chill pill.  If you guys feel the need to conduct a "flame war" go right ahead, but having worked in the broadcast industry myself, I've seen lots of radio stations billing themselves as the "World's Best" more often than not.  A few have even got special station ID's to advertise it-- WLS in Chicago mans "World's Largest Store" because at one time they were owned by Sears, even though Montgomery Wards was just as large and WBBN (another Chicago station?) meant "World's Biggest and Best Network" because if memory serves me right, it was owned by NBC.  Nathan should be free to advertise his website however he wants and Pumped needs to grow up, be an adult and STFU.


Should Pumped feel offended by my post, let me say that this will be my first and only post in this thread.  If Pumped feels the need to aim a few flames at me, go ahead, I'm a big boy and I can take the heat.
