Nauseum, got the answer right. was it right just because he said it was right. I argued drug addition with him years ago. I was speaking from experience; but, he wouldn’t deviate from whatever handbook he had on the subject. I was getting frustrated ... Mark, i lived that life and only hung around others that were living that life. I know why we started. But, knowledge from actual experience with the subject matter meant nothing to him.

oldtimer Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Being wrong on one subject doesn't mean he was wrong on this one. The explanation is the same, and as good as anyone else's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all of his posts, did he ever admit to being wrong about anything? He admitted that eating hot sauce was more beneficial than harmful despite his anti flavor food as fuel mentality. That's all I can remember at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall once he said he'd made a mistake. Later he admitted he was wrong; he hadn't made a mistake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Let me preface by saying that Mark went completely off the rails saying things that were totally unacceptable. Nonetheless, I must say he helped me on several occasions regarding a Dynaco SCA-35 and some speakers with knowledgeable advice offered in a gracious manner. That said, a long history of good deeds is quickly undone by a single mean spirited insult. The fact that he was nice to me does not diminish the gravity of his improper treatment of, and remarks to, others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStewMan Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 he drove me nuts sometimes; but, other than getting frustrated at his stubbornness, i had no problem with the guy. towards the end of his tenure, we got along just fine.

That’s what drove me out of the prosecuting business, the fact that the boss was elected. If I’d had a taste for politics, my last name recognition would have been an asset.
