Very nice article there.

Plenty worth quoting, but y'all just have to click the link. (Cool theory about Sier).

It's wonderful reading like this that makes Nick's so worth it, in spite of the usual dickhead posts from some. Excellent draft summary.

a very nicely written piece....and then things degenerate in the comments section amongst the 'common-to-the-cause' fans who occupy these sites.

Albert, I had to leave the blog as after 3 years it became a very boring and rude place to be within the co me ta section. I was not innocent and played my part in rudeness but I would say only to give it to the bullies on the site...

I left too. The rudeness and the fella that constantly answers his own posts to show how clever he is was rather boring.

Agree with the last three posts above.

The JB articles are well worth the read and are beautifully written prose, but the comments made by major contributors are usually rude, boring and sometimes infuriating in their lack of logic and extreme bias. I have refrained from participating in any "discussion" for these reasons.

Yes, Billy, I noticed that you did your best to stand up to the personally insulting, bullying tactics of some, as did a few others at times. All to no avail though.

It saddens me a bit to think that JB doesn't realize how widely read his articles are, but then he brings some of that upon himself by not controlling the bullies.

He does write good pieces. As for the comments, there is always going to be wankers on forums so I can usually ignore it. Tbh, I get more frustrated with the people who keep replying to his posts. Stop feeding the troll, FFS! Unless you are going to be trolling them back, do not engage at all.

Very good read. I might have a look around there.
