Subject: REBOL and The Insularity
Without question, REBOL is vastly superior product to any other
existing today.

However, if you peruse the REBOL.org mailing list [see
http://nabble.com/ search: REBOL or http://www.rebol.org] you be amazed
at the kinds of persons connected with this fabulous product.

Like some bizarro "Jones Town Cult" these, mostly European folks, with
their horrifc socialist indoctrination circle upon any outsider like
jackels to a scavenger feast.

None seem worth contracting. Most certainly, as an investor, their
characters reveal them to be unworthy of investment.

BE FOREWARNED: Steer clear of any person connected with this great
product REBOL who also involves themsleves with REBOL.net

REBOL is a very good tool, that's why we're using it. But it depends
what you need to accomplish with it.

I'm familiar with the list, and I've found them to be very open minded
and informative on nearly all REBOL matters. Newcomers to the list are
almost always made to feel welcome... except...

I remember once there was this guy who arrived who had appalling,
absolutely repellent social skills. The guy made nasty, sweeping
assumptions, abrasive comments, and insulted any list-participants
with different mindsets, worldviews or nationalities. In short, this
person was an exceptional jackass-- an insufferable, wretched
creature, worthy of contempt and pity all at once.

I tell you, t was an uncomfortable situation. Many on the list wished
the newcomer would seek his fix for negative attention elsewhere,
preferably in a therapist's chair. In the end, the guy eventually
vanished because the list simply clammed up-- probably because no one
could deal with his relentless antisocial primma-donna bullshit.

But I digress...

Roger that. It is probably best to seek elsewhere for investment
character. I believe it was Warren Buffet who first extolled the
practice of trawling email lists as a bonanza of investment prospects.
He is also rumored to have said, "You can attract more flies with
honey than vinegar; and if that's not how you roll, try lobbing a few
rocks at the beehive." LOL! That Warren Buffet, what a pistol.

The REBOL list has been around for nearly a decade and no problems.
You arrive on the scene, and within 24 hours you feel qualified to
proclaim it a menace to society? Thank ya for the advice, Fire Marshal
Johnson.
