I'm almost done with that book. Give me your address so that I can send it to you, that way you can actually read it before you go quoting the author! As far as me not having any experience, fine I'll give you that. I think it makes you look more foolish for someone as "experienced" as you are not being able to argue a subject with someone else who has no experience, but you keep insisting.



Dave,
I never attempted to tell you what you need or that I know about farming or whatever it is you do. But if there is a new method of farming that requires for the farmer to have his own line of dogs, I would think that I would have heard about it. Who knows, maybe I'm wrong, maybe it is a given that every farmer has to breed his own dogs to do his work and I just happened to miss that over the years. I asked you to explain, but it seems as though you would rather give a half ass answer and spend more time attacking me. As for your second paragraph, good doctors, lawyers, breeders and trainers read books as a PRIMARY tool to get where they are at and keep reading them to continue to do their job well. Sorry, but experience without it, counts for little (and that comes from experience). I have never stated what my qualifications, experience and knowledge are as you have. I don't think it matters on a messageboard. I simply put out different ideas that I think spark interest. If I'm wrong or I don't know about something, then I have and will say so. You fail to realize that I'm not out to try and prove to the world how much of a great working dog breeder I am. People who tout there experience, vast knowledge, degrees and certificates in the midst of a discussion on a messageboard, show their true confidence in their knowledge, no matter how egotistical they may seem to be. You don't seem to get it. I will try again, but I suspect that I will just spark more attacks from you, but here' goes.

The nature of any message board is that people share ideas. If you were to go on a message board and say for instance that you have 30 yrs. experience and you have a doctorate in veterinary medicine, specializing in animal behavior, then you would naturally impress everyone on the board and easily sway people to agree with your statements without letting them think for themselves and debate the issues in their own heads. You could very well be full of BS and just have a sufficient amount of time and knowledge into the subject to be able to fool everyone of how much of a guru you are. But when someone comes along with a strong argument and questions your stance on something, then the only thing left to do is to attack. This is what you and a couple of others have done for a very long time. If someone disagrees, attack. Naturally many people will just back down in frustration or because they are told how inexperienced and stupid they are. This in my opinion, hurts the purpose and importance of these boards. I myself was fooled. I would notice little things here and there that didn't seem right, but I had patience. NDE, toppled that with his constant attacks and I just had to say something. As I told you early on, in the beginning I never used to post because of these same reasons. Heated debates and even mud slinging (snide remarks) is one thing. But full blown attacks because of a persons opinion is another. But this last post that you put up was completely off the subject and strictly dedicated to attacking me.

"Boob...Kid.....Going to great lengths to appear knowledgable....I think you know very little" LOL, David please, learn how to wipe your ass before coming and trying to patronize me. If you want to continue to call names like a little 6 yr old, then I will just have to stop responding to such ignorance.

"tell us now, what is your position on ANYTHING DOG" Who is us, your little clique there?

Prove you wrong? I think you singlehandedly assisted me in doing that today.
