Would somebody please explain to me .........
......... why there is so much animosity towards Mr Brady.
I know I could google for it but all that would throw up is more of the same. So as an occasional lurker who has been encouraged to delurk all I am after is a simple, rational, non name calling explanation as to why he is the subject of so much vitriol and hate. I acknowledge I know nothing of glass working however in reading posts Mr Brady appears to present a not un reasonable case and tries to keep a civilised tone in all that he says. Admittedly I could have missed something so perhaps you could enlighten me. I know that virtually anything goes in Usenet and people give vent to their feelings etc however I have children who are prone to name calling and I can't help but draw comparisons.......... Such is life (and Usenet) I suppose. David -- |

Speaking for myself, I can't stand the guy because he takes every thread as an opportunity to advertise his useless "festivals" and/or to pontificate on some point or other as if he's the sole oracle of the glass gods and we should receive his holy scripture on bended knee. Especially if his holy scripture has something to do with buying overpriced and unnecessary tools from him rather than from some other small-potatoes web-based retail establishment. If I want someone to try to sell me stuff at an obscene markup, I can find my local retailer's or Delphi's website on my own. I come here to learn. And to see what color Moonraker turns when he gets really bent out of shape, but mostly to learn. |

So now, you're accusing your local retailers of selling you stuff at an
obscene markup? Explain to me just what sort of markup should a retailer be putting on a product? I suppose if I buy something for $1 I should sell it for $1.25 and expect that to be suffucient profit?

Mainly because he constantly spams the few places left that he is
allowed to post with unending ads for his crappy products and services. He makes ridiculous claims that he doesn't back up, and spouts childish rhetoric about his business sense and teaching abilities. Lots of us here teach, and many of our students mention and praise our courses. Absolute silence about Dennis. Oh, and he is a lying turd. He deliberately posted something about me which was a complete fabrication, and now, in his usual response when he is caught in a lie, (it has happened before) he accuses me of making demands which he refuses to meet. Did I say he is a lying turd . . . Brock |

"David K" wrote in message ... ........ why there is so much animosity towards Mr Brady. It's not just in THIS group, David. Might I suggest that you sign onto www.angrymandrel.com and to http://www.thegldg.com/forum/index.php. Be prepared for some explicit language and some very poor grammar and spelling, but definitely more light on the question you posed. Look for threads about Victorian Art Glass or VAG. It's some real interesting reading from people who have actually done business with Brady. If it were just one or two people who dislike Brady, you might just pass it off as two personalities that conflict. Apparently, the opposite is true, as his supporters are few and far between. |

The difference is that he continues to alienate everyone of his comtemporaries by telling us all that we are wrong, and his way of doing things is the only way. The bottom line is that his smugness is shoved in the faces of everyone that knows better, and we react to it. -- JK Sinrod www.SinrodStudios.com www.MyConeyIslandMemories.com |

Such is life (and Usenet) I suppose. David Brady is the kid in the playground when you were younger that did anything he thought he could do to **** off everyone else so he could get in a fist fight and prove that he didn't know how to fight... he got his ass kicked daily and still refused to learn that he didn't know how to fight. Same thing with glass, what he knows is just enough to get himself in trouble, and he passes that lack of knowledge off as information worth paying for...and it's not. Just as his parents must be real proud of him, imagine you were the person that gave the idiot his first stained glass lesson. I say first cause he obviously knows it all so never went back for class 2. Just like a 13 year old, they know everything... |
