Well he had a poor mix between his bold intro, and then the discussion of the
particular podcast. He should have used a more toned down intro I think
because compared to the given podcast he sounded tired.
Actually as a person generally he is okay, but like all of us I guess he has
his moments. He did moderate the blind cool tech e-mail list, maybe that is
what made him tired *lol*. He wound up with his hands full with that list.
I joined the blind apple group, but it is already shunted into it’s own box and
I haven’t gone and read any of it yet.
Guess if he turns up arrogant if I can’t humble that I will probably eventually
leave because I really don’t want to waste my time with folks like that, to
many other things in life to take care of that are a lot harder decisions.
Maybe that’s arrogant on my part. I’ve been accused of being that way before
by one person, but that person has no credibility with me as far as I’m
concerned. That particular person’s record speaks loudly for itself.
