Tim,
Let me say first, that while I don't always agree with what you post, I always enjoy what you post. You are one of the people that makes this place an interesting and humorous place to visit.
But come on Tim, I don't believe for a second that you are sitting in your shop with a broken heart over what Cliff said.
It has been clear in the past that you don't agree with the way Cliff does his testing. Isn't that what this is really all about. A chance to try and make Cliff look like a fool in public? Do you blame him for not taking the bait?
I have dealt with Cliff on the forum and in e-mail. He has always shown the utmost integrity, honesty, and fairness. This smear campaign will run it's course and go away eventually. The reputation Cliff has earned over his time here will still be intact. I guess the one you have earned will be also.
Take care,
Jim
