Used to be a technical manager, I am currently working as a police officer. It has proven to be a welcome change (and challenge) :) Still dealing a lot with computers though... :cool:

This is going to be my only response to you on Sal's site. You behaved like a troll over at CPF. Your parting shot on the Inova thread was how you wished you could kick everyone's @$$. You even accused me of being the type of person who gets other people killed.... and why. Simple because I posted about my positive experiences with my 2C Maglite w/ MagLED drop-in, from a post that you responded to a year after it was originally made??

And now you want to pretend that we're cool?
Ah.... No.

I'll let you have the last word. But Sal's site is similar to CPF in that it is a family-friendly forum, filled with good members who are eager to help out. Sal is not only well-respected, but well-liked. And it is my honest hope that you do not do here, what you did on CPF.

My apologies to Sal and the Spyderco.com community for going off topic with this post.

ok... to each his own, and you have the wording wrong. but whatever. i just won't talk to you anymore. i love you anyway. and BTW, there is nothing "family friendly" about the comments that you made that started the whole fiasco. just leave it alone, i don't want my words used out of context here as well. i'll stay on my side you stay on yours.

I guess the politically correct term for my job would be import/export specialist.
