Very interesting. TBH I'm always much more suspicious of people who do
not
use their own name on the InterNet and/or provide an e-mail that
bounces.
I'm always left wondering what have they got to hide? Until you get to
know
them a bit better of course!

Or, it could be that they are completely right in what they say. I've
lost track of the number of people that described you as "smug". After
my final dealings with you last autumn, it was very, very easy to see
why they did.


* * *It's true that Will can be a little smug occasionally but this is
a tiny fault compared with your bullying rudeness. *After all, his
original posting which set all this off was a model of modesty and
self-effacement and stated quite clearly it was no more than a hunch.
It was almost as if he knew you were round the corner with your bottle
of vitriol. *No wonder we all hate you.

I don't think that Will is smug, the fault lies with some of the
ingratiating fawners that have acted *like his groupies over the years.

Well, that's highly typical of the exterior hiding something very
different within, Mr. Hand. An exterior which professes reasonableness
and moderation and an interior that is prepared to go to great lengths
to vilify the questioner - oh and a very, very, selective memory. As I
have said before, your forecasts, from a hobbyist, run the risk of
leading some of these fawners and acolytes into trouble, Dartmoor is
not a place on which to take risks with an individual's forecasts.
That includes yours. No outcome success statistics; no way of knowing
how accurate the forecasts are. That's my point for you and your
website users to ponder.
