: Again, I respect your opinion but I hold a contrary one.

backyard

made
: you blush,
:
: A lot has actually been directed at me, my family, my
town
: or my friends. *If* Phil actually had any assets I
(and

the

:
: but what the
: : heck. His posts of late have been demonstrating a
: willingness to try to be
: : helpful to those he can help and I give him respect
for
: that.
: :
: I'm afraid the Leopard's spots are pretty firmly affixed
;-)
: All you will have to do is wait for the next Full Moon
to

: actually receiving help and treatment for his
Bi-Polarity I
: would leave him alone entirely. Perhaps with the right
: medication his disorders, fixations and tenuous grasp on

abused.

: Cheers TT

: Whilst it is true that qualifications can be a marque of
knowledge on a

people with the

entered the

he's had probably
: close to 35 years or so to read up, bugger up a few things
and learn from
: the experiences of others. Despite his reputation of
intolerance, potty
: mouth and general poor demeanour, he has obviously amassed
a reasonable (if

:
: As you would need to acknowledge, not all skills and
know-how are developed

you are qualified
: doesn't always mean you can do the job. :-( There are
plenty of people out

wall, but putting
: those qualifications to use is another thing. However the
fact that PA
: flushed the opportunity to gain a formal qualification
down the toilet needs
: questioning.
:
: Just my 2c worth.

I know you are well aware of the difference between a "self
taught, unqualified, backyarder" and a "competently trained
and certified techie". We just can't have people running
around playing at "Mr. Fix It" and potentially putting
people's safety at risk ;-)

Cheers TT
