Yes, Kudos Dick. A high five to you on this one.
And, "kallitype@hotmail.com", the key word above is "always". B&S as a
company and as individuals have ALWAYS been a joy to work with. I (and I'm
sure many others on this list) do not agree with your assessment of the
history of this list and, as a subscriber to the B&S board since its
inception, I do not recall the "questionable mean-spirited comments..." by
forum monitors you cite. If you'd care to enlighten me OFFLIST with specific
examples, I'll be happy to hear you out. But don't give a very talented,
helpful individual such as Dick Sullivan such a public backhanded compliment.
The congratulatory message is in order and appropriate for this list, but
the rest of your post is better kept to a private exchange.
I wish Dick would contribute more to this list as he once did, but that is
because IMO he's ALWAYS been sincere, witty, knowledgable, friendly,
rational, caring and helpful.

---remainder of original post follows: <<Several years ago, when I first joined this list, Dick's wit and advice were a constant plus. But then something happened. Perhaps he joined with the "wrong crowd". In any event, he developed a mean streak and went too far out on a limb with some obviously personally biased shenanigans. At one time forum moderators at his own web list were posting questionable mean-spirited comments directed towards people prominent on THIS list. Hopefully, those times are behind us. I miss the OLD Dick Sillivan, and I hope he takes this proud occasion as an opportunity to return.>>
