You know, Ed, you're really not worth anything to this list. And I'm beginning
to think that you're not worth much to the hobby, either. Or the human race.
While you may own a shop, and have untold decades of MG experience, your only
advice to the list is to tell someone that they are stupid for doing something
a certain way, usually the way that you disagree with it.
With an attitude like that, it's a wonder that people come to you to have work
done on their cars. Personally, if I had a choice to let my MG go up in flames
or let you work on it, I'd be toasting marshmallos on it as it burned. Your
sour attitude and deragitory tone add nothing to this list, excepting to serve
as a guideline for people not to follow.
People can and do buy collector plates - more often than not to take advantage
of special insurance policies than to 'beat the system.' However, in Ed world,
it must be a crime if one does something that the Grand Master (that would be
you, Ed) disagrees with.
Ed, not to mince words, you are the lowest form of person on the Internet --
someone who's sole purpose in life is to berate other people on a list
designed
to share information, and a sense of friendship. If anyone ever went against
the very grain of this list, if would be you, sir.
