Ken Lassiter, Boynton Beach, FL > > All right Luggers , I've always enjoyed reading Erwin's posts but I'm still wondering why he is so susceptible about the responses . If you write something , you will always find someone thinking you were wrong , and this is all natural . Erwin makes me think about 14 year old teenager , sulking on any occasion . I met someone in my new company , about 60 year old , a dutch born man , with the same attitude ; He has been fired since then . One advice Erwin : drink a good beer , grab your M7 and Elmar ( very nice stuff by the way ) and go out shooting ? This will enable you to breath fresh air ...
