[QUOTE="soberups, post: 875146, member: 14668"] It is the mark of intellectual honesty to force yourself to occasionally entertain opposing points of view. That is why it is so unfortunate when the people who supply those differing points of view choose to leave a forum. If the [I]only[/I] people who participate in a forum are people who agree with you, what you wind up with is little more than an intellectually empty echo chamber. I seldom agreed with what Salesguy had to say, and I found many of his posts to be rather arrogant and condescending towards the "grunts" like me who do the dirty work providing the services that he is paid to sell. However, he [I]is[/I] a UPS'er, and he is just as much a part of the Big Brown Machine as any of the rest of us, and he did have something unique to contribute to this forum. Its unfortunate that, like TieGuy, he felt compelled for whatever reason to leave the forum. Personal feelings aside, I hope both of them choose to return someday. [/QUOTE]
