Hello Col
I must say that it is with a heavy heart and rather cheerless disposition that I have read your reactions (please allow that word to be used loosely) on the spark plug affair regarding Pete's post. And it is with both, respect and a certain amount of admiration that I read your apology. What I cannot understand nor comprehend is that you state that you will not forget Pete's indiscretion and that you have a long memory. Inidscretion of what exactly are you referring to Col? And 'stick it to me', how exactly? As we have stated all the members of the other board hold you in what I would describe as "the Guru", advised and recommended by none other than Pete. So what are you basing your judgement on? You seem like a big man sir and it takes a big man to write an apology but please, dont insult
1) Pete's allegiance and ability
2) Our intelligence
Because this is what you do when you make the comments you do and it seems to me that there is almost a personal vendetta occuring to shrivel Pete's reputation as a mechanic. He has NEVER done that to you...not to any of us has he stated that you were anything less than able, fair and generous. Why in the world would you base an opinion on what is very obviously a poison communique with one intent?
We are funny creatures, human beings. Our idiosyncracies are what gives us our individuality but this should not mean that we should lose clarity of thought on any situation. Right now, right here Col, what we have is a case where you sir, have not allowed Pete a single ounce of the benefit of your doubt and that I think, should be of the essence.
