A couple days ago I started a thread explaining I was working on a project for you, Bob, and asked the membership if they could help find your lost "untrained eye" webcasts.
Adelheim deserves a round of applause. He was the only one who responded and he saved ALL the missing files from being memory holed.
I'd also like to thank Alan and Adelheim for putting up with me and alpha testing my buggy incomplete code.
ME:
Back to what Pain said, "Is it too obvious to say that the internet is like the printing press, we are like the reformers, and it only takes a few reformers to do the job? "
Not only is it not too obvious, you have to tell yourself that endlessly. Sarge went charging onto the attack, and nobody backed him up. Adelheim has MY book cover as his avatar, and he started an SF thread, but he sent me rep points and thanked ME for bothering to get in there and fighting on his side.
I know EXACTLY how Sarge felt. I've been there a hundred times, minimum.
It STILL hurts. When I was doing those broadcasts, I got ZERO encouragement except from Kelso. Even I had to quit after thirty-something broadcasts with no support. I decided to spend that time HERE because I could feel results coming.
Sure it's been tough, but no violins, please. This is the fight I picked and I could have opted out of it decades ago. As a matter of fact, I have a giant, actually unfair advantage over you and The Sarge. I have done this for decades and I have SEEN the results. You are battling on faith alone.
The original Doubting Thomas is called SAINT Thomas. He would not accept Christ's Resurrection until he could put his hand into Jesus' wounds. He was not rejected for that, but Jesus how much more blessed, more blessed than a SAINT, are those who can believe without proof. My point is not theological. It is practical, and it applies to you right now. God or man, Jesus knew us very well.
Sorry for myself? No friggin' way! Out of the thousands on Stormfront, the pair that hopped in to back you were MY bloggers. I worked my butt off and spent my money to get the best, and I GOT 'em!
This process is VERY had on Sarge and us. I would play the violin for Sarge, but he would break the damned thing over my head.
No, Pain, you cannot say that to yourself and to us too many times:
"it only takes a few reformers to do the job. "
ALWAYS back up another blogger. We are a SOCIAL animal. I will be happy when someone starts saying , "Oh, God, here comes Bob's crowd again." They will find out who Bob's crowd IS, and a LOT of them will want to join.
Then you will get that torchlight parade the SFers keep talking about. You know, the victory march when everybody tells you they were on your side all the time.
