Default The Hero worship of Joe B

Can't say his last name, cause it's very similar to a swear word

But i read this on another forum:
---
You should probably post a link to Joe's column Michael, as he doesn't
like people refering to his column on this site without linking it
---

Oh purlease, what's he gunna do, sue?
He's an American, the message board is a Uk one

What are you Gavin P... his advertising agent ?

People have their own opinions about his forecasting abilities
(especially the long range forecasts) and people are entitled to their
views.

It's a Liberal society we are living in now.... not some kind of
Authoritarian 'dark ages'

Sometimes i feel people are trying to be irritating on purpose. Not a
good idea, considering current conditions

Default The Hero worship of Joe B

Oh i forgot to mention, but i've visited message forums based in the
USA, of the weather discussion variety.
Joe B has got his fair share of critics from the USA as well, including
someone that flies Hurricane Hunter aircraft, and other people that
know their stuff on the topic of weather.

They are very openly critical indeed, they haven't been told to shut
up, as far as i know

There are a group of people that almost worship Joe B, and they can't
stand hearing him being put down slightly. But that is what discussion
forums are for... to discuss.

Not everyone is going to agree. I think most of the critical /
skeptical comments are justified myself

His website starts off like this:
---
The thoughts expressed in this column represent Joe *******i's personal
speculation
---
Just like with "Psychics" - people will tend to remember the hits and
forget the misses.
He's made a lot of predictions that haven't happened as well

So i'll finish off with a couple links:
