rare earth sentiment tone for friday, page-50

"he is bent on doing some good for the benefits of the forum when he bashes posters who post what he deems as garbage and mislead. And in so doing, he can even afford to be a little condescending"

Blur, i agree with what you have said 99.999 % right down to Aushed good heart and spending his precious time sharing his information for free. But there is 1% i don't agree with which is attitude. No human being should ever come down onto another human being in a CONDESCENDING manner. Every human being in this room is EQUAL full stop. Do you agree with me on this?

Also when i am proven wrong was i willing to PUBLICLY admit i was wrong? YES. Hell, i was even willing to pay for him a nice high class meal in the best restaurant at my favorite joint The Crown Casino to go with it.

If anyone thinks they are superior to anyone in this room in terms of intellect or even wealth is kidding themselves. My family has a personal friend who was a director of a resource company who went from extreme wealth to going bust and his reputation in tatters over the course of 4 years. Another family friend in our circle was a director at WorleyParsons and at the height of the stock market boom he was worth Half a billion dollars and yet he was most humblest man we have ever met. When our family migrated to Australia we were very poor, My father only had 10 grand in his pocket and Engineering job that's it. We couldnt even afford a car back then, the director personally drove my dad each day to work back and forth. Please show some humility and respect to a fellow human being.

I did not become this way overnight. I have considered Aushed to be a trusted friend, I EVEN defended him privately against my better judgement to my friends in this forum BUT Aushed in the time he has spent on the forum he has proceeded to rub Chihawk , Openminded, Jan Johnson and countless other in the forum the wrong way. He inadvertently told another poster a personal friend of mine who has worked in a rare earth company for many many years that HIS KNOWLEDGE of rare earth belongs to primary school kid along those lines. That poster now to detriment of this forum has vowed to post less and less.

If Aushed, posted his views to me in a more civil manner, i would have totally accepted it. I could see where this conversation was going to lead and so i offered a friendly bet like i do with my good mates but unfortunately he chosen the way he wanted to approach the situation.
