| MikeB said: Of course I try to self-reflect. I had many support over the years, but for many of those people posting on that board I had become their arch enemy. From a 2004 interview with former KMOS/Amiga CEO Garry Hare: "Mike Bouma. During the initial phases of research I "reached out" to a few individuals asking for help. I know some were friends of Amiga's and others probably sought to limit any personal liability. One evening I received unbelievable documents. I was already convinced that what we were dealing with was little more than misusing the Courts to steal property. This document made me angry. Around 1 AM I pick up the folder labelled Mike Bouma and read it a couple times. He knew exactly what was going on and didn't mince words about the issue. I felt better. I like you style, Mike." Yes, such comments had their backslash amongst haters. 'The friend of my "arch enemy", is also my enemy', kind of thinking. |
Mike,
Although I disagree with you more often than not, I still respect the fact that you don't resort to name calling and insults in your arguments. And while I believe that there are times you shy away from some data that seem to contradict your position, I've never felt that you would openly lie or intentionally deceive. I just think you've come to the wrong conclusion on some issues.
