If you can't make a statement/point without calling someone names, then you best not even make the statement. I don't believe he called you any names, so I simply don't see the need for you to call him names. I want to make it CLEAR, I am NOT defending B.D. in any way, shape, or form. I am simply calling it as I see it. I do not believe that B.D. "chased" any "good people" away at all. I've been on this list for upwards of three years now, and I have not seen, in my opinion, B.D. bully anyone. He may take people to task for something, but that is not bullying. Some people don't deal being "taken to task" very well. I know Erwin left more than once, and I know it was not simply because of B.D. this last time (and I doubt the times before). As Marc stated, Erwin is very sensitive to criticism. I can't speak about Henry, but I doubt Henry was "bullied" off at all, much less by B.D., he can stick up for him self quite well from my experience.
