Before you jump down this guys throat.
I had to visit Crowley's site to find out how smart he was. Not sure why I
even went there as he hasn't asked any stupid questions that I can remember.
Others here who don't post their information seem credible simply by what
they post. They seem so stable and sensible.
I have 28 years of experience with audio, software, movies, visual fx,
music, engineering and the like and I am routinely yanked around here by
asswipes who can't believe anyone would have expertise they don't have. I
have software running in high profile aircraft, a successful product on the
keyboard market, credit on dozens of major feature films and a history of
successes that I am proud of. Since I am not stupid enough to elaborate on
this in a public urinal like USENET I am constanly called a liar by people
who have a problem with that. I used to get a little tweaked about it..
Anymore.. it is fun.
Ten years ago I remember getting in a long drawn out argument because I
posted that cassette tape was dead. Imagine that.
Ocassionally I will indeed ask a very stupid question. That is how I got
where I am today. And yes, it does make me look stupid. Which I am too old
to care about. I certainly do not know everything. But when someone who
works for me asks a stupid question I take time to explain the annswer to
them. If they ask the same question repeatedly I let them go. As long as the
people who sign the checks don;t think I am stupid... all is well!
I have no problem taking people at the word. Until they prove otherwise.
At some point I would love to elaborate on why I prefer anonymity. There are
some truly funny stories that have to do with that old TV show "A Current
Affair" and a feature that I was working on at the time.. And little trip
through the legal department at Universal. All courtesy of a complete
lunatic that I gave a great job to. And I never suspected him until I was
told about it years later. It is truly unbelievable how cruel and dispicable
some people can be.
