Seriously, Bob, he's right. When you attack ADT, you're attacking the
industry.
That's all of us.

Bob, you're scaring me here: you sound like a fish (bass)
Don't try to BS me that you don't know Jim is a top-notch installer. I save
some
of his posts in my notes and I bet you do too. My money says you have
never blocked him.

Cooper is playing with something I think has to do with the changes in low
frequency sound waves in a building when a door or window is opened.
It had a legitimate beginning way back in the 70s methinks but it never
seemed
to catch on, maybe it doesn't work,  I thought it held a lot of promise.
Unless you have one and confirmit doesn't work, "scammer" is a pretty strong
accusation.
Paul is on a mission, he went away when he got bored. Many of us popped
up to ensure readers weren't duped, in fact, do you recall who led the
charge?
And finally, I, for one, appreciate his pompous defense of the industry.
It sounds like he is proud of his work and his chosen trade, what exactly
is wrong with that?

By all means, Bob, tone it down. But not to spare us his tirades, I enjoy
them.
The man has a gift, maybe he was Navy or Army back there somewhere. I always
know EXACTLY what's on his mind or how he feels. And my vocabulary has
improved too. Do it because he's right. You can tell folks how you run your
business
but no need to denigrate others who don't see things your way.

So there. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
