Not really. Larry, from what we have seen here over a long time, has been nothing but an exceptional gentleman. Down to earth, and helpful to a fault. He goes out of his to help others, and we should all be proud of him. SCI? They can rot in the gutter as far as I am concerned. 99% of their stupid awards are nothing but self serving to the idiots who run it. We need to see REAL change at the top of SCI. I know, we get that promise each time a new nut is installed at the top. Never happened, but we live in hope. | |||

Unfortunately, when there is a Committee involved the man at the top of the table is muzzled when it comes to decision-making. Ideally the majority of committee members need to be on the same page with the Chairman for things to work positively without any obscure agendas. | |||

When you have a box of rotten apples, putting one good one in will not make them all good. That is SCI in a nutshell! I have given up on SCI! | |||

Saeed: I totally get what you are saying. SOME things, as opposed to all things, certainly raised questions. For example, the PHs of the year who have ended up being common criminals . The awards have caused some to behave badly. Does that mean they are all bad? SCI does a lot of things that get little publicity yet are (in my view) fantastic, positive things . For example, did you know that after the massive hurricane in Mozambique that SCI put together a major relief effort? They did . It was not publicized. Did you know that SCI’s lawyers helped more than one member of AR when the antis were trying to get personal information to harass us? They did. The list is long . I won’t defense the selection of PH of the year nor the bad behavior of some . The reality is that they do a lot of good in spite of these issues. Personally, I think some of these things ought be publicized. | |||

Well done and congratulations Larry! A big "hats off" for everything you have done for so many. On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling Life grows grim without senseless indulgence. | |||

Thank you, Marcus. I agree-he has done much for others. ...I say that hunters go into Paradise when they die, and live in this world more joyfully than any other men. -Edward, duke of York ". . . when a man has shot an elephant his life is full." ~John Alfred Jordan "The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." Cicero - 55 BC "The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities." - Ayn Rand Cogito ergo venor- KPete “It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities but of their advantages.” ― Adam Smith - “Wealth of Nations” | |||

Congratulations Larry! Any honor deserved and I agree 100% with your comments on SCI.. Drinks are on me in Vegas this coming August or January if I see you! "At least once every human being should have to run for his life - to teach him that milk does not come from the supermarket, that safety does not come from policemen, and that news is not something that happens to other people." - Robert Heinlein | |||
