Its Steve right?
I see your only road is to mock/ridicule. Just like David Im sure it is under the guise of humor or lightening the mood ???
I for one am very disapointed all I heard for weeks were thing like "great David finally is comming to the internet" or "good David will share his marble knowledge via internet "
and so on so forth but what did we really get? A guy that has lots of marble knowledge to share but for whatever reason be it ego,fame,stature can't come across other than full of himself.It took about three posts for me to get tired of the over use of fancy three syllable words ,dont get it twisted I know the meanings and the proper usage but come on its general marble talk not a darn graphic novel or a Harvard speech. Does he really talk like that in everyday conversations about things less than astrophysics. REALLY??
David your reputation was enought to make many of us listen so there is no reason to "show us" how smart you are thru your vernacular.
Maybe MANY of us are reading you wrong David but this is how you come across via internet.
Maybe we are all to "interneted"? When you talk face to face with someone you can read the emotions that come with the words but the internet is void of that so the words you use need to be choosen in a different mind set. Think about this a simple EMOTICON can relay what may take a dozen big words to get your point across.
Strange isn't it this new word of the internet?
I can say "hey so and so you suck!" and end it with a period.
OR I can say "hey you suck" LOL
Two totally different ways to come across and all it took was a little LOL.
STRANGE HUH?
Now before it gets turned again Im not suggesting you give up words for funny little characters Im just giving you, a guy that was supposed to do great things via internet some feedback as to why not everyone enjoys reading you post's
Maybe some of us really are to stupid and its OUR fault we cant relate to you?
Who really knows as these are just IMHO.
Ok Ill stop know and read the replies but I have no plan to revist this thread so you guys get the last word so have at me
