[meteorite-list] Fwd: The SkyRock Cafe

All,

Darryl obviously needs no defense, so I won't bother here.

The problem, Joe, is that there was no negative comment whatsoever until
your little tirade, which was exactly what got things so "blown out of
proportion." I asked the question because I actually wanted the answer
(imagine that?). There was no attack (nor was my message broadcasted to the
list, and as a forum administrator I'll assume you know how to make that
determination). I'm sorry that you were "in a terrible mood...having a very
bad day...not in [your] normal frame of mind" and the like, but that's no
excuse to make that my (and the rest of the meteorite world's) problem.

The irony is that what I assume to be a part of your defense is something
about the met list that I and many others have found distasteful about it
from time to time (the childish name-calling garbage, etc), but I'm not sure
your response has put you in much of a position to boast of a higher ground
within your own forum.

When you say you "analogize," Joe, I assume you're making an apology and
I'll gladly accept it and move on...

Best regards and wishes,

Dave

Darryl, Dave List,
    By me defending my forum and over reacting to a negative comment.
You(Mr. Pitt) come to the conclusion that I have significant
psychological/emotional issues?I was not aware that Dave's message was
private, I thought it was post for the entire list to read, which is
the same reason I posted it to the list. I really am not a person who
agues with people all the time or a spaz. I do not understand how, by
my message alone That I am unstable and am in need of psychological
help. When I wrote that reply. I was in a terrible mood, I was having
w very bad day, I was not in my normal frame of mind. I am person who
tries to avoid conflict.
        I really do not know how this got soo blown out of proportion.
How can you say I will not change? I do not understand how this got
soo out of hand. I merely spoke my mind about a person who was
belittling the SkyRock Cafe which I have put much time and money into,
so that all meteorite collectors and hunters will have a place to
share photos and stories, also to get a question answered. I analogize
to Dave for over reacting and calling him names, but I do not
understand how Darryl Pitt hats the right to say I have significant
psychological/emotional issues. That bothers me. How can they think I
have problem, simply because I was defending My forum, I never said
anything about Mr. Pitt and he attacks me. I do not know what that
proves, but it does show his true colors. I want no problems and I
hope that this does not keep people away from the SkyRock Cafe, it is
a great place no matter what goes on here, there is not arguing, no
egos, not beef between members. So I hope that everyone can put this
behind them and check out the SkyRock at give us a chance, if you do
not like it you do not ever have to go there ever again, but You
should just give us a quick look over, I think you will find it to be
a friendly and full of information and people ready to help you with
all of you questions.

Best Wishes,
Joe Kerchner
