I have had my share of communication issues with B in past. My conclusion is that B may be handling things differently (his style that is, which [U] "may "[/U] Have been offensive to some, including myself). However, looking at his record and testimonials and a recent clarification via private communication with him directly, I can say that "he is just the way he is". Very direct and may seem abrasive at times but once you know him, you'll likely know where he is coming from. After all, we all have a common thread that should bind us together so these individual personality clashes are just that. We need to recognize these clashes, reconcile and move on. Its too bad that B is leaving this board now but he has certainly proven himself to be a responsible man. To his family and clients. Lastly, he has certainly mellowed a lot in the way he communicates and handles conflicts, which is a good thing overall. Take care B and this board will miss you.

[QUOTE=WordSmithFour;1605632]Although not having used any of his girls, B had always been straight with me and I counted him as a friend from a distance. This IS too bad. B, if you see this, fare thee well my friend. And stay in touch.[/QUOTE]
