("There were stories about Matt Broze "self proclaimed inventor of the paddle float" going home in a huff, after the "sponson endorsement". " Ingram, 2006) You know, that little report above bothered me a lot more than being labeled a mass murderer. The reality was I was never even there until a few days later. Because we had no employees, Cam and I couldn't justify closing our store for two days more (than the two we were already going to be closed to display at the symposium) just attend the trade associating meeting. Tim knows better too. During that time I was trying to help him improve his product and to quit threatening those he was trying to sell his product to as by doing so he was insuring that most would never buy from him no matter how good his product became. You know, talking to him in person or on the phone he never seamed that crazy (at least back in the early 1990's when I was trying to help him in his efforts to improve the safety of sea kayaking). The devil inside may be something that only comes out when he sits all alone with a keyboard in front of him. This may be more common than I realize. I've noticed a public service ad on TV lately asking folks to not type something that you wouldn't say to someone in person.
