I think what you're seeing is Tom and others on here trying to defend it rather than blatant self-promotion.

i do have to strongly disagree on this one.

he knows exactly what he is doing. for a person that obviously values "winning" at any cost more than anything else, the neck hairs that he raises on this site is just the icing on the cake to him.

it is the game.
defend/promote ... defend/promote... promote, promote, promote,... its the same thing for him. he may have been a tech at one time,.. but now hes a salesman,.. thats what they do. for a salesman nothing is more important than promotion. defend is just the cloak that he has chosen because he knows by instinct and history how well it works.

even he has made reference on this site about how its a "dental network" for all dental people. he said if it was just a "dental tech" forum he would not come around. why is that? ... he knows that the Dentist also come on here. thats the whole point. he also knows that to get them to call him, to some degree he needs to get them to see his side. "what im doing is not so bad ... its good.. see.. see how good it is".. and maybe throw in a little sympathy in for good measure. poor guy,.. everybody's always picking in him.


i agree with everyone here when they claim hes highly intelligent. everything he does is calculated. he sees every angle... winning is everything for this type. nothing else matters.

why is it such a big deal to him if a person decides to stay anonymous on the internet? (like thats so uncommon). its our choice? there is nothing that says when you sign up here you have to disclose everything? he wants to paint it as cowerdness to others on here.. but lets not forget his level of intelligence. the real reason is this: what he is really saying is be like me,.. i put my picture and real name and all my info up here! you should too! be a man!... yes he does. touted as the big act of bravery. when really he knows that combined with staying at the top of this forum so often.. having all his info in plain sight is the best way for any potential new clients to see him.

make no mistake.
this person is here to get your doctors to send him the work instead of sending it to you. that is his job. its what he does. and im sure he does it well.

I can stand behind my words and use the name my parents gave me. I do understand that because we are likely to bump into each other at a state lab meeting you feel safety in you anonymity.

My phone number is on the bottom of every post and I have been contacted by some that post here. All were without animosity.

I give everyone my business model and it seems you could find a reasonable way to counter that or is the frustration that you are not up to the task.

Some of the things you say about me are true I like winning. Being a loser is not an attribute anywhere I know of. All the work I have was going somewhere else before it started coming my way. None of it belonged to anyone but the dentist that produced it.

Words are words, anybody can say anything. A true man is made up of a conglomerate of his actions.

What I think is really cool is the guys like Shaun and Mark. Extremely successful labs who could easily implement less ethical, legal, practices to make more money..... But don't...... Very cool;)

Heh.... I was a luirker for nearly ten years until i started reading Mr. (was going to write uncle but don't want the argument) Tom's posts a few years ago. I got so angry I started posting:) I think I irritate him as much as he irritates me, but we seem to have called a truce of sorts and it's better like that. There are many on these forums that are stealth advertising, I can spot them a mile away. If you take these forums too seriously it will drive you crazy, my advice is to just let it go before it esculates and turns into a shouting match (I'm trying to remember all the names rob called me in our last exchanges:).

I have more if you'd like :D

I think you used all of the English ones, you may have to use Spanish next.
Over the years the forums have been interesting to say the least but I think my favorite was the guy who PM'ed me with an angry letter and said that i reminded him of his ex-wife and that his kids learned to hate her and would not speak to her now, that if i kept it up, my child would grow to hate me too.....yawn.....

Keats,

Your post in simplistic at best. I don't praise communism any more than being pro American is praise for the left wing socialist Democrats. I do praise the great techs we have working for us. They are no more communists than most posting here are left wing social Democrats. I understand that what I do and technology is causing havoc in the domestic lab industry and brought change the industry was not ready for. Even we are bringing more of our production back domestic every day but for sound business reasons not unfettered nationalism.

I earned the right to wear that hat buy being in the Navy. I gave them a blank check they could cash all the way to getting me killed so you could write anything you want here. What branch of the service were you in. If you were in thank you for your service. If not thank you for your kind support of a disabled vet.:mad:

My dad was a Navy Commander on the USS America....and he served our country through two wars, and over thirty years of service. My older brother was a Captain in the Navy also.

I'm just busting your balls Tommy boy....at least you, unlike alot of other labs are transparent some what. A few years from now your off shore business model will be very tough to thrive though.

And you bringing back the work here brings me great delight. It's not just about getting some printers, and cad cam machines to control labor. It's not about the cheapest product you can bring to market.

It's about surrounding yourself with great technicians, and great people that have a real passion for what they do. It doesn't matter if you're a plumber, a painter, a lawyer or a Doctor...it all remains the same for long term success, even in a difficult economy.

Never chase the dollar... and take care of your people.... and it will come back ten fold....it has for me:)

I saw the movie and the fat boy came out on top before it was over.:D

I appreciate your families service. I was also a service brat. My dad served from 36' to 59' in the Army and then the Air Force from the day it was formed.

lol.. really brother its no problem what so ever. he brags about having skin like a rhino... mines like the m1a2 abrams tank:). and when it comes to forums this is far from my first rodeo. im not saying hes a bad guy. im sure he loves his mom just as much as i love mine. my point is if his favorite macho goto rebuttal is "man up" but he will never "man up" and be honest with everyone here about why he is really spending so much time on this site? and has point blank denied it?.. come on... i call bs. and then the whole "i want to know who you are incase we meet some day? give me a break. he only wants to gather ammo. go on the offensive with anything that will distract from whats up with why he is really here. (i gave him the texas info just to see what he would do with it). and the whole "why are you hiding"?.. that one really takes the prize, when your the expert at hiding in plain sight. talk about projecting. seen it all before. working the charm.. keeping these peeps convinced he is doing one thing while really doing another.
i thank you, i appreciate your looking out. but dont worry i'll be fine. and if what he is saying is true (which i seriously doubt) he can stop being concerned with "bumping into each other at a lab meet". i only hang out there and chat with people i have respect for.

You have me at disadvantage as you snipe from the mists of anonymity. I make myself an easy target because I will back my words you can only rant.

That all I have to say...BS. Guys/gals like you are always back, shooting from the foggy mist. Tell us most stuff you do from the formless either.

Come on we need some more of your drivel of fear.

Penny,

There is a big difference. I know who you are and where you live and even have your phone number. I disagree with you on some of your ideology. I also agree with you others. We have both learned from each other over the years.

I don't want DD to go away because he is my straight man and foil to allow me to more easily voice my opinions and sell sell sell ...what a crock.

Most labs are small and there is a reason. They have never been a big part of my business model because most can't sell what they make beyond survival let alone plug into the volume it takes to make money in offshore outsourcing.

People react more aggressively to a truth they don't want to hear, much more than lies.

Tom

Sometimes the sky is purple in the east at sundown.

My spell checker always wants to change NicelyMKV to noisemaker. Even Micosoft knows about you.:)

Thanks for letting me know you know where i live and have my phone #..... a little creepy but thanks. I would advise DD not to disclose info for that reason alone. People act aggressively because others try and scare by saying they know where you live. I should look you up so we'll be even:)
