Can you believe that previous post??
Seems maybe labdude is a little over protective???
Response from anyone is indicated.

I am not trying to suppress Don and his comments. My thoughts, (what???nobody read my mind out there??) there is "mention" of lawyers in 2 posts in this thread.
Don is required by his contracts to respond to anything he finds reguarding the appliance he has a contract, tm, etc. for. The ones holding the contract can come after him if he doesn't. The one with the most money would win.
So...he must protect things by responding when there is a new post reguarding the appliance.
I am not mentioning the appliance by name, or posting pictures of it etc.
Therefore, hopefully, Don doesn't have to reply to a thread that is a sort of "catch 22" for him. It's not really a catch 22, he's doing his job, and better spoken than I could do.

It would be nice if we could be quiet about this particular appliance, no more posts or pictures of it or "like" appliances.
Then Don doesn't have to respond to something, and I don't feel the need to take up the other side.

Travis would like the site to be a place where anyone can come and say most anything they feel, including some "yelling" at each other without suppression. This is unlike other sites that will delete posts for seemingly being rude or not pc or that makes someone uncomfortable. Allowing this type of open discussion makes this site unique.
May this thread serve 2 purposes, as it seems to.
1. Open conversation, that has a point.
2. Protection of those who have a tm, contract, copyright etc. of any given appliance or item or component.
Please read this carefully, and lets have some fun, and heated conversation if need be.
Rob and Brian8 are good examples, they give me crap now and again. Not to mention Trisha and Cade.
It will make for a stimulating site if we have a lot of open conversation.
I hope this is as clear as mud.
Mike.
