Imagine, being accused by none other than TEPaul of doing nothing but "sitting at our computers and pontificating." TEPaul! The man has deleted more posts than any of us could ever hope to write. Let's see Tom, you are approaching 40,000 posts, aren't you? And that doesn't even include the thousands you deleted out of embarrassment about your prolific pontification, or the hundreds you deleted to cover your tracks on you obnoxious drunken rants. Ah, but those were the good old days when you could still cover your tracks by deleting your posts once you sobered up.
So somewhere between 40,000 and 50,000 posts-- a library worth of words-- yet you still haven't found the time to come up with a coherent substantive critique of my IMO? Too busy, I guess?
As for Mike's efforts at Cobbs, I wish him luck. I like Cobbs. It was a very good early public course, and I hope someday they manage to find the money and the right guys to restore it properly. I don't think the hysterical partisanship or the heavy-handed fluff jobs are necessary or productive, but I guess they just do things differently in Philadelphia.
I won't even get into the matter of you lecturing on public golf. That is funny enough on its face.
