Re: [NickDG] Value (or not) of The List (World BASE Fatality List)
Nick,
I truly appreciate the time you took with such a response.
It is the spirit in which you keep that early brotherhood flame alive which I respect in you.
However, when I said I don't know you, I meant I wouldn't think for a moment I know you well enough to say anything worth reading that would stand for ever as a testiment to your life or death, and more importantly you don't know me either. One phone call about a rig, and a couple of years of vicarious interaction through the sport amount to very little in my book.
And be careful when passing this torch of the BFL on to the next generation. It seems like there are a number of people who would jump at the opportunity to pick up where you leave off. "Me. Me. Me. I'll do it Nick, I'll do it." Yeah, like I want that guy writing about me, my friends, or family n the event of a fatality.
I'm done talking about the list now, I won't ever die because I'm immortal anyway, so it's a moot point for me.
It does seem that I touched a nerve though. It almost seems to me like I committed a huge feux paus by questioning Nick and THE LIST. I didn't know they were sacred or off limits.
I didn't think that a group of people who pride themselves on urinating on the graves of their "brothers" would hold anything sacred.
Oh well live and learn, if not you get to share a number with those on the list, yipee.
