[DMCForum] Re: Re:Constructive/Deconstructive-- Exuberance/Naivety



AD DISCLAIMER
My anus only applies if cursing flames flood my inbox.

It's relieving to see you are not the thug portrayed in emails to ccc
putsch. I
guess I just don't understand in setting them straight, why can't you try
and
help them understand that their claims are wild instead of cursing at
them,
basically saying "your an idiot" and ripping their website apart because
it
doesn't look professional.

In all my geekyness I get offended when people insist on using PC's for
graphic &
video editing or a Mac for data processing, but I don't rip them a new one
when
they use the wrong tool for the job. It's mostly just ignorance. If they
ignore
efforts to help them, I guess ignorance is bliss. People are more likely
to do
change their wrong ways when by using a kind instruction than with a butt
whoop'n. All thought a good whoop'n has it's time and place (normally
after the
initial instruction is being blown off).

"Do not make wild claims in the hope that someone will believe you and
support
your effort."
Agreed, but is your statement just a 'claim' of his intentions? I think he
believes that he can do this and is not seeking others support. I guess my
whole
point is . . . what I said in the first paragraph above . . . Why can't
you try
and help him instead of rip him? If the kid is as arrogant as you claim
it's a Dr
Jeckle and Mr Hyde thing because I have never met the Doc in all the time
I've
known him. I can see why he would be turned off from listening to you now
though.

Sorry, I was referring to Walt's ability to not make fun of you and not
the lack
of constructiveness. Thanks for thinking of us!

HEY! what about your anus!?

It's not a matter of public belittlement. It is a matter of someone
else's arrogance getting so inflamed that it needs to be set straight. I
feel personally offended when people make wild claims that have no chance
of being successful. You know why? Because it belittles the time, work,
and money that I've put into my car. It's also insulting to anyone that
spends money on any engine modifications, and every engineer that works
in the automotive field that can not even do in a lifetime what this
person can do in his garage.

Claiming that you can get 400 hp out of any engine is a reasonable feat.
Claiming to get it out of a 20 year old motor in a month's work for $2000
is scathing.

Here's some constructive criticism to everyone: Do not make wild claims
in the hope that someone will believe you and support your effort. If
your effort is ridiculous, I might be the first to tell you so. I am no
stranger to ridiculous efforts, hell, look at my car!

FYI, whalt was not very constructive with my radio transmission idea, but
he's probably right. It's not a very good idea because of reliability
and electromagnetic interference it may create. I still maintain that it
is the best idea if you want to change as little as possible on your
car... plus it would be totally reversible. I get enough flack over my
irreversible modifications, I was just thinking of the rest of you, so
blah!

Here's a bold move- If the 'modification' comes out and is what it claims
to be, I will make a public apology and personally buy you one.

Jim

ps Deconstructive? isn't it destructive? ah, nevermind.
