>>>You are the one whose clients laughed at your "demo". I am the one the Drew Speedie hired personally. You are a pathetic jealous loser. Even Jim Nelson said you were a Nazi about formatting and that I was far most skilled than you back then. Why else do you think he asked me to meet with both of you.

>Jim Nelson brought me to you because he new you needed my help.

Nope. Jim Warned me about you.

>I saw a pathetic piece of crap that your intended users laughed.

Delusional

>You were a stupid ignorant putz then and you haven't changed. I could not work for you. Jim was working with you at the time. I taught Jim and the group a lot of stuff and started the Toronto FoxPro User group where many people learned a lot.

Your user group was called "The mike Yearwood show" and that is the reason for its demise.

>That's when I met Drew Speedie.
>I refused to work for your sorry ass, but Drew Speedie went out of his way to hire me.

No I kicked you out.

>You are so blind. You are the one who cannot pass up any chance to criticize my application of science. mdot is built into foxpro. It has definite provable effects and benefits, which you in your arrogance choose to ignore.

You have no idea what science means.


>I have asked you to stop bothering me, but you can't because you're an addict and a sick individual.
And I would have as if you jsut stopped smearing my name and your delusional claims.

>I have every right to enjoy this site without your harassment.
No-one has the right for his opinions not to be critisized. Learn to live with it Mike.

>Others refuse to back me up in defending myself from your sickness,
You are not defending yourself here, you're making an *ss out of yourself. Nobody here, gives you any credibility after weeks of crybaby claims that I harras you and that your failure in life is all my fault.

>then they and every one will hear about how stupid you are.
Blunt and hard, perhaps, but stupid. That only goes for ones that act like a bully. Hint... its not me.
