Good to hear you are still with us, Pete, and doing well with your business. You know my number- call anytime as I have always enjoyed our music discussions.

If you're gonna use social media, even forums, you' better grow a thick skin. I had a small squadron of "haters" on the CF that went after me personally, professionally and even about my abilities in the classic car hobby. One sicko even used a picture of my wrecked split window as his personal avatar on the NCRS site for months. Without even knowing if there were serious injuries in the accident. A mentally ill individual.

Others on the CF called me a liar concerning the positions I held in the Federal gov't at several agencies and no proof could gainsay their attacks.

Your self worth shouldn't be tied to anything material or others' opinions....people will say sh!t via the anonymity of the internet they would NEVER say to your face.

Worry not, there will be plenty of proof. Like always, I’ll be totally honest. You won’t like it. I was not going to go there, but you decided to dox yourself.

That’s on you.
All the drama without the details? Where's the fun in that?
