This is a discussion on Bushmaster SuperLight Carbine with Red Dot - Carbon 15 within the Defensive Rifles & Shotgun Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; I got the Bushmaster carbon light this week i haven't fired it yet and i have a red dot on it. This is my first ...
I got the Bushmaster carbon light this week i haven't fired it yet and i have a red dot on it. This is my first AR 15 or what ever you call it. When i was in the Army Nation Guard from 1969 to 1975 we had colt M16 and that is the reason i got the AR 15. I should have done my home work before i got it & if i had i probably would have gotten a step up model but i assume it was in the class as the Colt M16 that i used in the Military but i know now that it is a lesser grade of gun from what i have been reading here and other forums.

I'm not even responding. What a joke. Head over to Lightfighter or SOCNET and tell them that gem!
Look at his location! Give me a break! I see a total troll.
Proven combat techniques may not be flashy and may require a bit more physical effort on the part of the shooter. Further, they may not win competition matches, but they will help ensure your survival in a shooting or gunfight on the street. ~Paul Howe
What an interesting thread! I own two AR's, a Colt CAR Sporter with a pencil barrel and a Colt LE model. I have never fired a shot in anger, never been fired
upon, (although cans, bottles and derelict pieces of trash quake at my presence!). I shoot a few hundred rounds a year through each of them and have never had a problem. For my purposes, a BM would work just fine. If that is your shooting habit, then the BM is a good gun for you. But I'm glad I have Colts.
I was thinking of buying the carbon 15 myself and stumbled on this thred. I haven't learned too much about the gun but i have been reminded how rude some people can be.
I don't believe his results. Most of the people I work with and shoot with are military and most were perfectly happy with their rifles. But.... They also know how to use and maintain them.
EDIT - actually, to be quite honest, I don't believe he is who he says he is. I think he's just an offended Bushmaster owner. Well, that's all he is to me regardless. And for the record, being an MP or general military means NOTHING when it comes to weapons knowledge.
He was trolling and I'm sure he won't be back. He was Googling Bushmaster, saw this thread, signed up and threw his hissy fit.
One hour of searching Lightfighter or SOCNET forum (you know, Special Operations Community network forum) will tell you all you need to know about how well regarded the m4 is, as well as Colt, and the only times under normal fighting conditions these weapons run fine and the ones you see fail are in tue hands of people with no respect for their weapons and have no clue how to handle simple malfunctions.
It'll also tell you about how well certain brands are regarded.

I have zero military experience. So MY personal opinion about Colt M4's in combat don't matter. My sisters husband served two torus in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Never herd a single complaint about his M4. Though the complaints I do hear on the interwebs, IMO is probably due to improperly maintained weapons or just rifles that need replaced and are worn out. I can say, if I were to be in battle (I'd be too scared to be in a real battle, firefights only look fun on TV) I'd take a Colt over a Bushmaster, but I still wouldn't be bothered one tiny bit by owning a Bushmaster as a civilian for range use and self defense.
Just a few thoughts about what I have read on this thread. As far as "mil-spec" is concerned it is true that what the requirements of most items for the military purchases are not secret as they have to tell companies what the MINIMUM requirements are for companies to submit bids and prototype models, however it sometimes is possible that a given companies production techniques might be proprietary and therefore when someone goes snooping around to find out details on things they could run into some type of "It's classified, I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you" line but the same thing happens when you try to find out what the "secret" recipe for Coke is, when the ingredients are right on the can for all to see, it's just a matter of figuring out in what exact proportions and maybe some other tricks in the production process. Also Bushmaster were provided to the US military during the 1st gulf war when there was a shortage of M4's from colt, so that would seem to me that Bushmaster would know what it takes to make a "milspec" gun. Now as far as all the stuff about this brand vs. that brand, it sort of reminds me about people arguing about chevy vs. ford vs dodge vs rice burners etc. My viewpoint is from someone that grew up shooting and hunting and I served 4 years in the U.S. Army infantry, and 8 years in law enforcement. I was not, currently am not and never will claim to be some super high speed legendary operator that did more than anybody else, and as a matter of fact have really not done much shooting in the last 5 or 6 years, but am planning on doing a bit more and started doing a bit of research on the Bushmasters and accessories for ar's as my local walmart carries the Bushmaster M4a3for $780. My familiarity with the black rifle apart from ones i've looked at in stores and at gun shows is limited to the ones I used in the army, and one Les Baer I owned for about 2 years before I had to sell it cause I needed some quick cash. Of course there is also a lot of reading I have done on various ar rifles as well, and while doing some research on the bushmaster it turns out (at least according to a lot of people posting on various firearms discussion forums) that the Les Baer I owned was a POS gun as well. Having read that I came to realize I am not going to believe much of what anyone says about the bushmaster or any other gun, unless they have some type of reliable source material to point me too that the rifle is crap. I understand everyone has a bad experience with a product now and then, but unless there is some type of CONSISTENT issue with a product, I am not going to dam it for an occasional lemon in a barrel of oranges. I know my Les Baer was probably the finest breed of AR i've ever even handled, and firing it was a joy. Would it be the ideal for taking into actual combat, not really, but I could do a LOT worse. Also everyone keeps saying they can get MUCH better guns at MUCH lower prices, i've only seen a few people ever provide links to these "deals" and they are usually either "out of stock" or they are similarly priced BEFORE things like shipping and paying someone with an FFL their fee to receive the gun for you. I also remember a few years back when I was still shooting somewhat regularly and reading gun mags often that bushmaster were thought of as a great gun. Ok, that's enough of my rant for now, or at least that's all I can think of. Flame away.
I started reading the above post but then I stopped. My eyes had a cramp.
My name is Frogman46 and I'm tougher than you.
Why anyone would buy a Bushmaster for $800 plus tax when they could buy a Colt 6920 for $933 from G&R without tax as long as you don't live in Ohio is confusing to me. The only reasons I can think of would be that you can't afford the $100 difference, in which case you won't be able to shoot the rifle anyway, so it doesn't matter what you buy. Two, the buyer have no clue about the quality differences and haven't done your research. Three, the buyer needs instant gratification and would rather buy so-so today than wait for quality tomorrow. Four, the buyer shoots so little or only plink from a bench that it really doesn't matter.
Now, and I don't understand how many times this has to be said, but if your are buying a rifle to defend your life, whether for home defense or law enforcement use, the why the heck would you ever buy something that's just ok? I wouldn't even buy second best if I was defending my life with it, let alone a commercial grade rifle. If I already owned one before I knew better, no big deal, I can bring it up to speed with $150 and some time. Now, if you come here saying here's no difference in quality, then you clearly do not understand what goes into making a rifle reliable and durable.
Ignorance is often the culprit unfortunately as many just don't want to understand or won't take the time to research it. Keep in mind that in the past ten years, Bushmaster has consistently become less of a quality rifle. If you owned one 10 years, buying one today will not be the same experience.
Colt vs Bushmaster is in no way Ford vs Chevy. Colt vs BCM is Ford vs Chevy. Colt vs Bushmaster is closer to Mercedes vs an older MG, except the Mercedes is priced at $67,500 and the MG is priced at $62,500. Which is a realistic price comparison seeing as a Colt is less than 10% more for a similarly equipped Bushmaster.
I just don't understand how others don't get it! If you saw a Kimber with MIM parts and a Springfield with forged parts, both priced at $1,150, which would you buy? According to some people, they'd buy the Kimber with lesser quality parts because it's almost as good as and since they're not fighting a war with it, it doesn't matter.. Silliness.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to buy the very slightly cheaper Bushmaster if you really don't shoot enough for it to matter. But, there is something wrong with not being willing to see the difference.
Saying this, "I know there's a better chance of parts breakage with the Bushmaster and their customer service isn't as good as some others, but I shoot so little that I really don't mind" gets you a whole lot more respect than "all these guys that have owned both and say the Bushmaster isn't as good have no clue what they're talking about. There's no difference in quality between the cheap parts Bushmaster uses and the quality parts Colt uses. Just because the gas ports are 20% larger, chambers are often too tight, they use carbine buffers and their materials are a couple grades lower doesn't mean it'll be less reliable or durable!" I forgot to throw in the "Rambo" comments that are often thrown at guys that only buy quality, but you should see what I'm getting at.
Here's a link too of those mythical deals - http://www.gandrtactical.com/cgi-bin...ction&key=6920

Here's a current thread on m4carbine where a guy asked what happened since Bushmaster used to be recommended but now everyone says to avoid them. A think a large number of people that think Bushmasters are "as good as" are still living in the 90's when it comes to ARs when major game changing manufacturers like BCM, Daniel Defense, Noveske, KAC, etc., either weren't around or weren't in the civilian market. Colt, at that time, didn't have the civilian presence it does now either as well as some of the silliness they did at the time.

I'd like to change my PSN tag/nick name when I buy my PS4
1 replies 395 views Edited Oct 4, 2013
I've had my PS3 for a couple of years and enjoyed it a lot. Therefore I preordered the PS4 as soon as I got details like price and such (around E3). Around that time I also started to wish I could change my PSN handle / nick name. As it turns out, it's not possible to do at the moment (not even by paying, as is the option on Xbox Live).
Anyone heard if it's possible to do when the PS4 arrives or is the only option to start a new account?

All of our cottages have a designated 'let start day'. This is the usual changeover day for that cottage. We do allow you the flexibility to start your holiday on any day you like but you may find in peak periods you can only do this within 4 weeks before departure.
None of our cottages allow holidays to start on a Sunday. This gives our hardworking caretakers a rest! On the plus side we offer a late checkout of either 12pm or 4pm on Sunday at a result at the vast majority of our cottage so you can extend your week-end stay free of charge. Ask our Holiday's Team for more details.
Short breaks can be taken at most of our cottages. A few cottages accept breaks of 1-2 nights and most accept breaks of 3 nights or more. The options vary and each cottage clearly states the minimum number of nights permitted (see 'Min Stay' on Cottage Details).
Some short breaks can be booked up to 1 year in advance, others, especially in peak season, can only be booked up to 28 days in advance.
However, take a look at our great selection of cottages and specific dates for 3 and 4 night holidays which can be now be booked for peak season.
The festive period is a very popular time to get away and experience a different style of celebration. These dates can be booked up to 2 years in advance for bookings of 7 nights or more, while shorter breaks (minimum of 4 nights) can be booked from 8 weeks in advance.
Yes, we will send you a reminder 7 days before your balance is due via email. Please note that at present, you cannot pay your balance on line and will need to ring our call centre to settle your account. However if you have online banking then you can use the following details. Please ensure that you quote the booking reference and lead name:
|Barclays Bank - Belgravia Branch
|Sort Code
|Account Number
Full details will be provided with your confirmation letter when your booking has been processed.
Yes, you can add any extras which apply to your cottage such as logs for open fires, cots and high chairs etc up to 48 hours before your holiday starts. Please ring our call centre for more information.
Yes, we will send your directions on how to reach your cottage approximately 3 weeks before your holiday starts. If you have booked a last minute break (within 3 weeks) we will send this to you along with your confirmation invoice, as soon as the booking is paid in full.
We will contact you approximately 3 weeks before your holiday starts with details of where to find the keys to your cottage. If you have booked a last minute break (within 3 weeks) we will send this to you along with your confirmation invoice.
When we send you the directions and key information for your cottage, we will also provide you with a contact number to call in the unlikely event that you have any problems or concerns whilst on holiday. It is really important that you call us if you are unhappy about any aspect of your holiday cottage, as we want to have every opportunity to put things right or improve them for you.
We have applied a 1-5 acorn or a Basic rating to each cottage to be used only as a guide that covers location, style of interior and facilities you may be looking for. The range runs from 1 Acorn at a more basic level such as Bird How which due to its stunning yet remote location doesn't have a caretaker through to 5 Acorns at the highest level – such as Shute Barton. Basic collection cottages are in beautiful places but do not include all of the fixtures and fittings that you may expect from our other cottages, but still provide for your comfort and enjoyment. Cottage pricing is not judged on the Acorn rating alone and as all our cottages are of an individual nature we recommend that all factors are considered when making your choice.
If you have more questions regarding Holiday Cottages, call our team on 0344 335 1287 or email them: email@example.com

06 Unlimited tow hitch option advice
We have a stock 06 Unlimited and need to tow 1000-2000 lbs occasionally. Is there anything you have learned with regards to bumpers with integrated receiver or bolt on hitches negatives and positives? We drive alot of backcountry roads usually class 2 at the most at don't want any interference from the choice we make.
Thank You
My son purchased front and rear integrated bumpers for his '81 CJ-8 Scrambler and they were great. Rather than adding a hitch underneath the existing bumper which can decrease the departure angle (rear) or approach angle (front), it can keep the vehicle closer to the same level it was designed to be. On my son's '96 XJ, he didn't put on an integrated bumper and the Reese hitch underneath was "beat to death" at a Jeep Jamboree last summer. You may have a little more drop in the receiver to be level with the trailer you're towing, but I recommend the integrated bumpers.
I agree
I have an integrated bumper receiver. It will help alot on departure angels it can save you several inches out back and a bumber with it is a lot cheaper than buying a bumber and a hitch seperately. I do recomend buying one with the spare tire mount though, I am about to try and sell my bumper to get one with the tire mount.
Thanks to both of you for the advice.

.01 Terror: SlumsMature
Kyle inspected his row of girls who were all huddled together even in the heat, heads bowed down in confusion more than fright. But this whole time, there was a girl who stood out of the crowd. Staring at her chains without much surprise. Kyle eyed her for a moment. A freelancer.
"You." He dragged her out of the group. "What are you doing here?"
She swiped his hand off of her arm.
"Don't touch me." She said, slightly annoyed. "You were the one that picked me up. What could I do? Make a scene like that other girl?"
"Hmph." He growled. "A perfect waste of a girl."
"You wouldn't want to try..." She trailed off eyeing him dangerously.
"Tell me. What would happen if I did?"
"Well, I would break these puny chains of yours and then break your neck."
Kyle nodded, contemplating this new threat.
"Sounds good." He said with a smile. "Lock her up."
Two servants walked over and dragged her away.
"Let go of me! You son of a bitch! Oh, I'll make sure you die slowly and painfully when we meet again. You bastard! Oh, don't you forget. Kayli Rose will hunt you down one day and you'll regret it!"
"Muffle her. I don't want to hear her ugly voice."
Kyle sighed as he heard the door lock. Freelancers were dangerous. They were the only people who lived above ground and below. They were the only few who have ever seen the sun and survived the slums without succumbing to anything. Maybe they would hang out with crackheads, but they were not crackheads themselves. They usually knew self defense. And worse of all, they knew how to use their brains. They were actually smart.
Kyle continued his business, inspecting the girls when he heard the sound of glass shattering and a thump. His servants ran to see what had happened. Moments later, they ran back frantically.
"Master, the freelancer's gone."
Kyle nodded. Indeed, it would take much more than a locked door to keep a freelancer confined.

20 Questions and 25 Answers
Just gone to open machine and found machine to have the spin button on but not flashing, washing stillwet so didnt appear to have spun but no water in machine so presume pump working but washing would usually be much drier, so premuse not spun. Tried turning machine off then 3 lights on the spin speed display bar flash and wont allow you to press any other buttons. Would this be a problem with the brushes or control panel??? If it is the brushes are the ones listed on site suitable as not sure if this model has a FHP motor?????
Chris at eSpares says...
RE Amanda's comments. please watch the video again because it is important to realise that your machine can be unbalanced when washing one or two items on their own or with a full load. it is not so much about how full the machine is it is to do with whether the heavier items in the load can spread evenly around all the drum.
- Hello, I can confirm it was only a half load, had done 2 previous full loads before this problem occured. The machine was only half full but in my opinion full enough to not unbalance. It drained most water but left clothes damper than norm solely as machine didnt do final spin, it was only on a quick wash, so dont believe problem lies in the pump. Hubby replaced brushes with new, its fair to say they needed doing and we were hopeful this would be the end, but the machine no has a different sequence of lights all on the spin bar. Im certain I dontwant to spend lots on this machine as almost as cheap to replace with new as call an engineer. Any suggestion or is my Bosch of to washing machine heaven.
Chris at eSpares says...
If the problem resets when switched off and you had a heavy item in the load (large towel bath matt or bath robe) the fault may have been out of balance (see:How to Prevent a Washing Machines Spinning Noisily: http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/2401 If the machine still wont start check the brushes (see :How to replace the carbon brushes on a washing machine - Bosch http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/1379 )
Bosch Washing Machine trips RCD 3 Answers
The house dis-board RCD always trips a few minutes into a wash, except if the element is disconnected or a cold wash is selected. Must be the element. A new element worked for 2 washes but now does the same. I made up a test lead to plug the element directly into the mains, but it doesn't trip the RCD. So now it doesn't appear to be the element tripping the RCD. Any clues?
Chris at eSpares says...
Check the front lip of the inner drum does not allow more than a mm or so movement in relation to the rest of the drum. If there is significant movement then significant bearing wear is likely.
- Right - checked it again this evening, it now does trip the RCD with a direct connection. Removed new element, and found it has had a slot cut into it by the drum. Looking more carefully at the old element, it too has a less obvious wear mark in the same position. The drum bearings feel ok to me, but it looks like the bearings are failing, the drum has drooped and cut into the element allowing water in to it.
Chris at eSpares says...
Occasionally a element can trip due to a very small leakage current due to moisture in the element. This may clear after it has heated up a few times.
Bosch WFO2264GB/01 3 Answers
The washing machine does not start at all. Could it be the carbon brushers need replaced or a faulty motor? I'm not sure if the motor does not waork when the carbon brushes are worn out. Please advise.
- needed to be replaced
- If the washer was working normally and then the motor stops turning but everything else looks o.k. it is probably the brushes as they do wear out. This is a good value replacement product, They are a little bit fiddley to fit. Lots of patience.
- Likely to be the brushes. If the machine looks like its operating, making a clicking noise from the relay when it should be turning the drum, but the drum doesn't turn, then that's what it will most likely be. Either that or the belt has gone, but you will see that straight away when you take the back off the machine & you'd here the motor turning in that case If you take the brushes out they are approx 2" (50mm) long when new, chances are they will be about 5mm long if worn out.
Back Panel 2 Answers
Hi Rory, Great clear video. It looks easy enough so I had a go. Got the top panel off but the back and side panels seems to be all one piece. There is no panel I can take off at the back to expose the belt and motor. Any suggestions
- sorry should have said WFL2260UK/04 is the model. Yes I removed a small centre panel but it still does not give me enough room. The 4 side panels are definitely all one piece. I have now laid it on it's side and trying to get at it from below. It's not easy butI will get it off, I think the bigger problem will be when I go to put it back together!! Thanks C
Chris at eSpares says...
You did not give the make and model of your machine but some have a two piece cabinet that is screwed with a centre joint. There is usually plastic plugs at the centre bottom to be removed to access the hidden screws.
My Bosch WFL2872GB/07 machine keeps stopping mid cycle, before the spin and drain stage. The drum does turn when the wash part of the cycle is in progress and I have checked for blockages (there are none). When I turn the dial to any of the wash cycles it works but stops before draining. If I turn the dial to RINSE, SPIN or DRAIN it doesn't do anything, just makes a low grumbling noise. Does it need a new pump or a set of new brushes? The machine is circa 7 years old.
Chris at eSpares says...
If the machine does not empty check for a blockage in the pump filter stopping the pump from turning. See our diagnosis articles in the Advice centre for more details.

Brief Encounter
Meeting Point by Louis MacNeice
Written in the early 1930s, this poem has reminded every reader since 1945, of Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard's Brief Encounter. David Lean's film of their unrequited love story turned Carnforth station waiting room into a place of pilgrimage. The poem captures the moment when, for lovers, time stands still. My favourite line, apart from the final couplet, is the intentionally childish, And they were neither up nor down, from the Grand Old Duke of York nursery rhyme. Private passion, all over the place – in public.
Meeting point
Time was away and somewhere else,
There were two glasses and two chairs
And two people with the one pulse
(Somebody stopped the moving stairs)
Time was away and somewhere else.
And they were neither up nor down;
The stream's music did not stop
Flowing through heather, limpid brown,
Although they sat in a coffee shop
And they were neither up nor down.
The bell was silent in the air
Holding its inverted poise –
Between the clang and clang a flower,
A brazen calyx of no noise:
The bell was silent in the air.
The camels crossed the miles of sand
That stretched around the cups and plates;
The desert was their own, they planned
To portion out the stars and dates:
The camels crossed the miles of sand.
Time was away and somewhere else.
The waiter did not come, the clock
Forgot them and the radio waltz
Came out like water from a rock:
Time was away and somewhere else.
Her fingers flicked away the ash
That bloomed again in tropic trees:
Not caring if the markets crash
When they had forests such as these,
Her fingers flicked away the ash.
God or whatever means the Good
Be praised that time can stop like this,
That what the heart has understood
Can verify in the body's peace
God or whatever means the Good.
Time was away and she was here
And life no longer what it was,
The bell was silent in the air
And all the room one glow because
Time was away and she was here.
By Louis MacNeice
Eugenic NHS screening should stop
Sally Philips' powerful BBC documentary, A World Without Down's Syndrome? (iPlayer here, articles here or here), deploring how NHS screening may soon eradicate the syndrome, has provoked a pro-choice push back (e.g. here, here, here and here).
Philips' son Olly has Down's syndrome. He lives a worthwhile life, enhances the lives of those he meets, and has taught her that many parents are given unduly pessimistic information about prognosis.
Her opponents accuse her of bias in the other direction. They say that Olly is a relatively high functioning boy with Down's and that Philips, a successful actress, ignores the reality of caring for a more typical children in less privileged circumstances. They also suspect that Philips, who is quite open about her Christian faith, is secretly anti-choice, and wants to impose her rose-tinted view on others.
I'm pro-choice – I actually perform abortions – but I'm on Philips' side on this one. She understands that people make different choices, and as a good liberal accepts that. Her objection is to deploying the power of the state to screen for a particular vulnerable group, those with Down's, for which the only "treatment" is abortion. She's asking us to consider how members of other similar groups would feel if that power were directed to screening for people like them. She's accusing the NHS Down's screening programme of eugenics.
It's a serious accusation. My NHS Down's screening colleagues would be mortified to be so accused. Ever since Hitler incorporated eugenic ideas in his mad schemes for racial purification, eugenics has been a dirty word. NHS screeners say they're nothing like that: "We're just offering choice. No-one has to have the test. If they have the test and find out the baby has Down's, no-one is forced to abort. The counselling is carefully non directive."
But the programme overall is clearly encouraging Down's abortion. The government has decided that Down's screening is worthwhile because most parents choose abortion. If no-one did so, screening would simply add six months of futile worry to 600 or so parents' lives. Someone has judged that the "benefits" of preventing the births of 600 Down's babies outweigh the costs of the screening tests and abortions. That's a perfectly reasonable decision for a parent to make – parents may decide to abort a pregnancy with lesser abnormalities than Down's, about 180,000 abort normal pregnancies – but it's not a decision for the state.
To see why, consider some hypothetical, and some not so hypothetical, prenatal tests. Say for skin colour, sexual orientation, autism, bipolar disorder, increased cancer risk.
Imagine a woman who chooses to abort a healthy child because his skin is black. Perhaps she knows the father was black and she prefers a white child. We may not approve, but unless we are prepared to argue that women don't have the right to choose, we would support her decision. But we would never, I hope, offer NHS skin colour testing because we wanted to give parents the right to choose the skin colour of their offspring.
Perhaps that's a far fetched example. Consider parents who choose abortions for sexual orientation, autism, bipolar disorder, increased cancer risk. Individual parents may one day choose to abort pregnancies for any of these reasons. Tests will soon be available for many more genetic abnormalities, some serious, some trivial and many in between. As individuals we will likely agree with some decisions and be shocked by others. A woman has the right to choose. But the state does not.
Many people think that somehow, by discussion and argument, and fancy cost-benefit analyses, the NHS, i.e. the state, will be able to decide that some abnormalities justify screening and others do not. It won't. People will never agree. Even two middle class liberals like Sally Philips and I can't agree whether a diagnosis of Down's syndrome justifies abortion. Collective prenatal screening decisions will always be arbitrary and discriminatory. They will get progressively more difficult.
Now is the time for the NHS to step back; it has plenty else to worry about. Leave prenatal screening to the private and charitable sectors, i.e. to genuinely individual choice.

The Chamber over the Gate
By Henry Longfellow
One of Mrs Thatcher's attractive features was her unpretentious love of poetry. She hardly ever quoted a line or title correctly, as she would if briefed to do so, but mangled it slightly, suggesting genuine mis-recollection. Philip Larkin was famously pleased that she mis-remembered the line "Your mind lay open like a drawer of knives", calling Deceptions, the one in which that girl's 'mind was full of knives'. Here's another occasion.
In the first volume of his official life (p 191) Charles Moore mentions a speech to the North Finchley Bible Society in 1966. Referring to the recent Aberfan disaster, and the horror of losing a child, she said that David's lament for his dead son Absalom was a favourite Bible passage. But there isn't much lament for Absalom in the Bible; just the single verse 2 Samuel 18, v 33.
"And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!"
Nor was she thinking of his lament over Saul and Jonathan, the one that ends "How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!" Neither Saul nor Jonathan were David's children. I bet she had this poem in mind. The title refers to the the place where David went to grieve after the rebellious Absalom had been killed by the King's own forces.
The Chamber over the Gate
Is it so far from thee
Thou canst no longer see
In the Chamber over the Gate
That old man desolate,
Weeping, and wailing sore
For his son, who is no more?
O Absalom, my son!
Is it so long ago
That cry of human woe
From the walled city came,
Calling on his dear name,
That it has died away
In the distance of to-day?
O Absalom, my son!
There is no far nor near,
There is neither there nor here,
There is neither soon nor late,
In that Chamber over the Gate,
Nor any long ago
To that cry of human woe,
O Absalom, my son!
From the ages that are past
The voice comes like a blast,
Over seas that wreck and drown,
Over tumult of traffic and town;
And from ages yet to be
Come the echoes back to me,
O Absalom, my son!
Somewhere at every hour
The watchman on the tower
Looks forth, and sees the fleet
Approach of the hurrying feet
Of messengers, that bear
The tidings of despair.
O Absalom, my son!
He goes forth from the door,
Who shall return no more.
With him our joy departs;
The light goes out in our hearts;
In the Chamber over the Gate
We sit disconsolate.
O Absalom, my son!
That 't is a common grief
Bringeth but slight relief;
Ours is the bitterest loss,
Ours is the heaviest cross;
And forever the cry will be
"Would God I had died for thee,
O Absalom, my son!
Henry Longfellow
Balanced but biased
The BBC's menopause advice
Is odd (click here), and not just because they chose three men to deliver it; "Imagine I'm a woman" says the interviewer!
For the series Trust me, I'm a doctor the BBC interviewed two doctors with opposing views about long-term menopausal hormone therapy. Klim McPherson an epidemiologist from Oxford, presented the conventional view (click here); it carries increased risks of breast cancer, strokes, and heart disease and therefore should be used for symptom relief only, and in the lowest dose and for the shortest time possible. The absolute risks are low, so women whose symptoms persist may choose to take it for longer, just so long as they know the risks. But hormone therapy should never be used for "health promotion". Few would quarrel with that.
But the producers wanted controversy, an "expert" who would downplay the risks and say that hormone therapy is good for you. They found John Studd.
Studd's early enthusiasm for menopausal hormone therapy was at least based on the evidence available at the time. It was hardly his fault that drug companies had concealed adverse cardiac events, and that the "healthy user" effect made observational studies misleading. But his passion did rather run away with him. Here he is from 1988 (quoted in "Hot Flushes, Cold Science: A History of the Modern Menopause 2011 by Louise Foxcroft here).
"[There is now] little serious controversy about the devastating effects of oestrogen deficiency or the beneficial effects of hormone replacement therapy in post menopausal women. Pockets of resistance remain, more spiritual than medical, but fundamentally the news concerning heart attacks, strokes and carcinoma of the uterus is good. Some minor skirmishes concerning the dose and route of oestrogens, and the correct progestagens for the prevention of endometrial pathology remain, but essentially the battle has been fought and won."
As Foxcroft wrote, such "hideously inappropriate, crusading language of prophets and wars" hardly suggested a disinterested seeker after scientific truth.
She was right. When the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) trials (click here) were suspended because the hormone therapy harms made it unethical to continue, Studd couldn't, or wouldn't, alter his opinion. Instead he doubled down on his belief that hormone therapy is good for you, bad mouthing WHI overall, while selectively quoting those subgroup analyses and secondary endpoints which supported his ideas.
His reputation suffered. In the last century his papers regularly appeared in BJOG, the BMJ and Lancet. Now he's pretty much confined to obscure menopause journals supported by industry and run by his friends. But pharma loved him, and put him on their advisory boards and flew him round the world to spread the word.
Before long he had turned into a single issue campaigner advocating estrogen therapy for everything. On his website (click here) he cites "10 reasons to be happy about HRT", and even castigates psychiatrists for not treating depression with hormones! His "10 reasons" include making women more beautiful, more randy and nicer to live with!
Studd performed as the BBC hoped (click here). When asked about the increased risks of breast cancer he first avoided the question, and segued into his polished riff about the WHI trials which, according to him, studied "the wrong patients, with the wrong drug, by the wrong route, using the wrong dose and came to the wrong conclusions". Of course he's entitled to his opinion, but it's him who's wrong; no-one who knows anything about clinical research would agree with him. The two WHI trials studied more woman for longer than any other, and in the latest Cochrane review (click here) were among the minority accorded a perfect score of 7/7 on trial design.
When the interviewer pushes him, and asks about the claim that long-term HRT doubles the risk of breast cancer he denies that anyone thinks the risk is that great, and suggests that even the most anti-hormone experts only quote a relative risk of 1.1 or 1.2. This provokes incredulity in the interviewer who had just recorded McPherson stating the risk was doubled (click here. It's at 55 seconds). McPherson is right. The relevant Cochrane review (click here) gives a relative risk of breast cancer death after long-term hormone therapy of 1.98.
When asked if he ever takes women women off hormone therapy, Studd replies: "No, I don't take women off HRT." Women must be thankful that he no longer works for the NHS.
Thank you to my colleague Susan Bewley who pointed out this poor choice of "expert", and persuaded the BBC to add a sentence to indicate Studd's conflict of interest:
"Professor John Studd now works entirely in private practice, specialising in HRT-based treatments."
I think this is inadequate. I think the BBC should remove Studd's interview altogether. If they won't do that, they should add a much stronger conflict of interest statement. Here's a suggestion.
"Professor Studd has a conflict of interest. He has received funding for travel, lecture fees and payment to sit on their advisory boards, from many manufacturers of menopausal hormone therapy. He no longer works for the NHS, instead running a private clinic where he advocates and prescribes estrogens, either alone or in combination with other hormones, for pretty much every woman who comes through the door."

Girl on girl
The Argonauts by Maggie Nelson
A Feminist Accused of Sexual Harassment by Jane Gallop
The Argonauts (click here) is not your usual baby book. According to Maggie Nelson's faculty page at the California Institute of the Arts it is:
a work of "autotheory" about gender, sexuality, sodomitical maternity, queer family, and the limitations and possibilities of language
Nelson is a lesbian-ish poet and writer. Her partner, Harry Dodge, a female to male transsexual film maker and actor. Her politics are far left – the anti-capitalist rhetoric sometimes grates – but she is a wonderful writer. Her subject is not just sex and babies, not even the complexity of human sexuality, gender roles and reproduction, although she takes the reader to some wilder shores. Nor is it even about individual complexity, how so many of us, can hold mutually opposing opinions at one and the same time. Nelson's real subject is the difficulty of writing about all that. How it is impossible to put the truth about our feelings into words, but that still we must try. Words are the best we have. "Words are good enough."
She describes caring as a step parent for Dodge's son, and the conception, pregnancy and birth of their shared son, Iggy. The conception was of course complicated, but the rest was normal; spontaneous labour at 39 weeks, some unspecified pain relief, amniotomy at full dilatation and an unassisted vaginal birth. At six months Iggy "was stricken by a potentially fatal nerve toxin that afflicts about 150 babies out of the 4 million+ born in the United States each year". She doesn't name the disease; "I am not going to write anything here about Iggy's time with the toxin", presumably that's for her next book, but elsewhere we are told it cost $47,000 to be treated with an "infusion of rare antibodies harvested from other people's bodies". My guess is immune globulin for infant botulism.
But this is all background. The interest lies in dozens of loosely linked vignettes about life and attitudes in a fluidly gendered community in present day California. Here's a few.
Nelson rages against the mother of a transgendered child, a pupil, likening the child's sex change to a bereavement, until Dodge reminds her of her own fears about how he would change with testosterone.
Dodge explains that it takes a female to male transsexual to see the ways men acknowledge each other publicly; the nod as we pass in the street that women never make. Nelson notes that we presumably do it to reassure other men that we have no aggressive intent; throughout most of history a strange man was a threat in a way a strange woman rarely was.
She works herself into a lefty lather about being "forced" to work in a smokers bar, albeit long before she was pregnant, but admits to enjoying the company of the reckless smokers and drinkers she met there.
The sex seems to have been good. "You pretend to use me, make a theatre of heeding only your pleasure while making sure, I find mine."
Most shocking is her description of an extraordinary attack (p 48) by art historian Rosalind Krauss on the feminist Jane Gallop. I don't know anything about Krauss, but Gallop was to become famous with her controversial Feminist Accused of Sexual Harassment (click here). Nelson doesn't mention that later book, although it's surely relevant.
The seminar was at the City University of New York (CUNY) in October 1998. The topic photography. Gallop, a newlywed young mother, spoke of studying it from the point of view of the person photographed, illustrated her talk with slides of her naked self with her baby, and spoke happily and un-academically about sex with her new husband. "Heterosexuality always embarrasses me" notes Nelson parenthetically, but she is attracted to Gallop's method, despite the tentative nature of her ideas and the incompleteness of her analysis. She is also attracted to Gallop, to her vulnerability, her unfashionable dress sense. And then Krauss, sharp, classy, Ivy League, responds with, as Nelson recalls it, a vicious unsparing academic take down of Gallop's temerity.
The lashing Gallop received that day stood for some time in my mind as an object lesson. Krauss acted as though Gallop should be ashamed for trotting out naked pictures of herself and her son in the bathtub, contaminating serious academic space with her pudgy body and unresolved self-involved thinking (even though Gallop had been perfecting such contamination for years).
The tacit undercurrent of her argument, as I felt it, was that Gallop's maternity had rotted her mind – besotted it with the narcissism that makes one think that an utterly ordinary experience shared by countless others is somehow unique, or uniquely interesting.
Shocking, particularly for those, who in equivalent debates on birth itself, side with the Krauss's of this world; rolling our eyes at soft midwifery-based mother and baby talk, when what is needed is manly science. Nelson describes how generally she also sides with the hard-edged academic. But …
In the face of such shaming, I felt no choice. I stood with Gallop.
She's right. Gallop can talk nonsense, e.g. this from her home page (click here) "[…] The project brings together crip theory, feminist aging studies, queer temporality, psychoanalysis, and anecdotal theory. I consider how disability that begins in midlife and/or the entrance to middle age are [sic] lived as a threat to one's sexuality and one's gender, but also how these perspectives can supply us with alternative models of sexual temporality." Lord save us!
But, like Nelson, when she draws from personal experience – A Feminist Accused of Sexual Harassment is just that – she writes beautifully. Accused by two female students with whom she had flirted, Gallop got off with a warning from her university, and then jumped into print with this book. It's not just a defence of her own actions, but a closely argued claim that sexual harassment rules in university have gone too far. Not only are they impossible to police – people start relationships at work all the time – but they harm academic discourse. Flirtation brings energy and intensity. Without sexual possibility universities would be grey and chilling.
Only a woman with rock solid feminist credentials would dare make such a claim – sexual harassment in the workplace is a serious and ongoing problem. But Gallop goes further. She describes previous escapades where she as a student fucked her teachers, and other occasions when as a more senior academic she flirted with, and sometimes fucked, her students. Apparently none of them complained.
She argues that even if she had gone all the way with the students who complained, she should have had no case to answer, just so long as the students had remained willing, and she had not unjustifiably discriminated against them academically. She even protests at the students legal attempts to prevent her writing about the story. It's a racy read – not the sex itself, albeit both straight and lesbian – but the thrill of a woman writing so openly. And on the substantive issue Gallop surely has a point, although the line between constructive flirtation and harassment is a fine one, and tiny misreadings of intent can easily cause trouble, even for a sophisticated navigator of these choppy waters.
I can't hope to do justice to either of these two short and brilliant books, and not just for lack of space; my words are not good enough.

The Philosopher's priest's pupil
Iris Murdoch on Stéphane Mallarmé's Petit air
In the middle of The Philosopher's Pupil, John Robert Rozanov, the ageing philosopher, persuades the unbelieving gay priest, Father Bernard Jacoby, to tutor his grand-daughter Hattie. The tutoring is part of Rozanov's plan to keep Hattie secluded from society in the hope that the young Tom McCaffrey can be persuaded to marry her. It doesn't go well. Discovering that Hattie's German is better than his, and getting into a muddle with Dante, he reaches desperately for a favourite poem, the first section of Mallarmé's Petit Air, and asks her to translate.
An unwise decision. Not only are naked lovers swimming hardly a suitable discussion topic for repressed gay priests and teenage girls, but Mallarmé is pretty much impossible to translate. Nevertheless the comedy Murdoch gets out of Hattie's efforts at translation and the priest's fantasies explains the poem:
[…] He had intended to choose a less difficult poem, but the book had opened automatically at one of his favourites […] he realised that although he could 'sort of' understand the poem, and liked it very much, he could not construe it. […]
Hattie's attempt at a literal translation began; 'A sort of solitude without a, or the, swan or quay reflects its disuse in the look which I abdicated, or removed, from the glorious – no, the vanity – so high it can't be touched, with which many skies streak themselves with the golds of sunset, but languidly wanders the white linen taken off a sort of fugitive bird if it plunges -' […]
'It's impossible.'
'You read it aloud as if you understood.'
'Well it's beautiful – but whatever does it mean?'
'What do you think it's about, what sort of scene is the poet evoking?'
Hattie looked silently at the text, while Father Bernard admired her smooth boyish neck over which tendrils of pale-fair hair from the complex bun were distractedly straying.
'I don't know,' she said. 'Since he says there is no swan and no quai, I suppose it might be a river?'
'Good deduction. After all it's a poem!'
'And there's a wave at the end.'
'And – nue?'
'Someone naked, perhaps someone swimming naked.'
'Yes. It's a kind of puzzle picture, isn't it.'
'He's turning away from the gloriole that means sort of false showy something, doesn't it, which is too high to touch because then longe wouldn't be right – I think – so I suppose regard is the subject – but -'
'Oh never mind about the subject -'
'But I do mind! The solitude, the uninteresting solitude, reflects its swanless desolation in the look which he had turned away from the false glory, too high to touch, with which many skies dapple themselves in sunset golds – perhaps he thinks sunsets are vulgar – then, or but why but? – something or other, either his look on a fugitive bird, no I see, his gaze coasts languidly, no, langorously, along like white linen taken off – that can't be right – has longe got an object, could it be the bird? – perhaps the bird is like the linen, maybe it's a white bird that plunges – like the – the clothes which – no, no, surely the jubilation plunges – and the langorous gaze coasts along the jubilation – I mean – then "but" would have sense – it's all rather dull until my gaze langorously – no – if a (but why if?), if a bird plunges like white linen taken off, my gaze langorously follows, exulting beside me, or it, in the wave that you have become, your naked jubilation – oh dear! that can't be right -'
Hattie had become quite excited […]
Father Bernard was excited too, but not by the grammatical quest. […] What was the subject of what? Who cared? The general sense of the poem was perfectly clear to him, or rather he had made his own sense and hallowed it long ago.
He said, 'Let's get the general picture. You said there was a river and someone swimming naked. How many people are there in the poem?'
Hattie replied, 'Two. The speaker and the swimmer.'
'Good. And who are they?'
'Who are they? Oh well, I suppose the poet and some friend -'
Father Bernard's imagination had, in taking charge of the poem, taken advantage of the fact that the sex of the swimmer was not specified. In the blessed free-for-all of fantasy he had pictured the charming companion, whose underwear slides off with the languid ease of a bird's flight, as a boy. The final image was particularly precious to him of the young thing diving in and rising into the wave of his plunge, tossing back his wet hair and laughing. And all about the green river bank, the sunshine, the warmth, the solitude …
'Do you think it's a love poem?' He asked her.
'Well it could be.'
'How can it not be?' He almost cried. He thought, she is unawakened. 'The poet is with his -' he checked himself.
'Girl friend, I suppose,' said Hattie stiffly. She was feeling shocked at Father Bernard's evident indifference to the pleasure of finding out main verbs and what agrees with what; and she had not failed to notice his dismay at her outburst of German.
'Girl friend! What a phrase. He is with his mistress.'
'Why not his wife? said Hattie. 'Was he married?'
'Yes, but that doesn't matter. This is a poem. We don't want wives in poems. He is with a lovely young woman -'
'How do you know she is lovely?'
'I know. Just see the picture.'
Hattie said more kindly., 'Yes, I think I can – it's like that picture by Renoir – La baigneuse au griffon – only there – well there are two girls, not a man and a girl.'
'This did not interest Father Bernard, at any rate he did not pursue it, but the evocation of the lush greenery and the Impressionist painter accorded with his racing mood. 'Yes, yes, it's sunny and green and the river is glittering and the sunshine is coming through the leaves and dappling, that was a good word you used, the naked form of the -'
'The sun doesn't dapple the girl, it's the gloriole, no it's the sky or skies that dapple themselves with-'
'Never mind, you must get the sense of the whole – the linen, white like the bird, slips away -' The image which had now, with magisterial charm, risen up in the priests mind, lily-pale and glowing with youth, was that of Tom McCaffrey.
The philosopher's futile attempt to control Hattie's developing sexuality is undermined – 'We don't want wives in poems'. Hattie's image of the poem as a voyeuristic lesbian scene, albeit undeveloped, is a lovely contrast to the priest's gay fantasies. Here it is in the original French, in an English translation by EH & AM Blackmore.
Petit air. I.
Quelconque une solitude
Ici de la gloriole
Mais langoureusement longe
Dans l'onde toi devenue
Little ditty. I.
Some kind of solitude
from the vain pomp too high
but languorously skirt
your naked bliss should plumb
Here is the picture it reminded Hattie of, Renoir's La beigneuse au Griffon. The Griffon is the dog at the naked woman's feet, the model was Renoir's mistress, Lise Tréhot, and the painting is in São Paulo Museum of Art.

The Sacred and Profane Love Machine
Titian, Giorgione, Tintoretto & Iris Murdoch
The title comes from Titian's Sacred and Profane Love (above left in Rome's Borghese gallery), a painting which is notoriously ambiguous about which of the clothed or naked women depicts which type of love. In the novel Murdoch also repeatedly unsettles the reader as to whether Harriet and Blaise Gavander's 19 year marriage, or Blaise's nine year clandestine affair with Emily, is the sacred relationship. Before the novel opens, their neighbour, crime writer Monty Small, who has colluded with Blaise, has already loved, hated and been widowed by his possibly adulterous actress wife Sophie. Was his love sacred or profane?
Harriet's relationship with Monty, and her decisions to forgive, and later not forgive, Blaise's affair and love child, drive the plot.
Early in the novel, dumped in the National Gallery while Blaise visits his mistress, the still unsuspecting Harriet looks at "Giorgione's picture of Saint Anthony and Saint George". Presumably this is Il Tramonto (The Sunset), which the gallery acquired in 1961 (above middle).
"There was a tree in the middle background which she had never properly attended to before. Of course she had seen it, since she had often looked at the picture, but she had never before felt its significance, though what that significance was she could not say. There it was in the middle of clarity, in the middle of bright darkness, in the middle of limpid sultry yellow air, in the middle of nowhere at all with distant clouds creeping by behind it, linking the two saints yet also separating them and also being itself and nothing to do with them at all, a ridiculously frail poetical vibrating motionless tree which was also a special particular tree on a special particular evening when the two saints happened (how odd) to be doing their respective things (ignoring each other) in a sort of murky yet brilliant glade (what on earth however was going on in the foreground?) beside a luscious glinting pool out of which two small and somehow domesticated demons were cautiously emerging for the benefit of Saint Anthony, while behind them Saint George, with a helmet like a pearl, was bullying an equally domesticated and inoffensive little dragon."
A lovely, albeit rather inaccurate, description of the painting, but an even better metaphor for her state of innocence before discovering her husband's ménage.
Later, reading Blaise's letter confessing all:
"She remembered an Annunciation by Tintoretto in which the Virgin sits in a wrecked skeleton stable into which the Holy Ghost has entered as a tempestuous destructive force. Only Harriet was not glorified by ruin. Her house was destroyed indeed."
But not at first. Harriet rallies, forgives the lovers and takes charge. But it's not easy. Emily wants her man. Blaise vacillates. There are children involved. Outsiders interfere. The plot twists and turns, but it turns relentlessly against Harriet. Eventually she and her house are "destroyed indeed".
Tintoretto's Annunciation (right above) is in the Scuola Grande di San Rocco in Venice.

Our Lady of Mercy Medical Center, Bronx, NY
We present a case demonstrating (1) the possibility of diagnosing metastatic calcification with respiratory failure occurring in acute renal failure using CT densitometry and bronchoalveolar lavage, and (2) its relatively rapid resolution with hydration after the return of renal function.
A 30 year old male was admitted with a cocaine/narcotic mixed overdose and diffuse burns. His laboratory studies revealed rhabdomyolysis with CPK levels in excess of 400, 000 IU, renal failure with a creatinine level of 6.0 mg/dl and a phosphate level of 7.3 mg/dl. He was removed from dialysis on hospital day 51. Subsequent to this he developed acute hypercalcemia with the attendant development of diffuse interstitial pulmonary infiltrates and acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.A gallium scan of the lungs showed diffuse uptake throughout both lung fields. Fiberoptic broncoscopy yielded BAL fluid containing calcium particles. The CT of the chest showed that the pixel densities of the interstitial infiltrates were consistent with calcification, and this was confirmed by nuclide bone scanning which demonstrated calcification in both lung fields. With further improvement of renal function and hydration, the patient's infiltrates and oxygenation progressively improved, until on hospital day 135 he was removed from mechanical ventilation.DISCUSSION: Metastatic calcification of the lungs is a cause of interstitial lung disease in acute renal failure which can be diagnosed without lung biopsy utilizing minimally invasive and non-invasive methods. It can resolve spontaneously with improvement in renal function and conservative management.
In the setting of acute renal failure, especially with rhabdomyolysis, respiratory failure and acute interstitial lung disease can be evaluated with CT densitometry, nuclide scanning and BAL. If metastatic calcification of the lungs is identified, prolonged conservative therapy should be provided.

Forgive me, kvetched and mussitate are in fact words. Sorry. But your useage of them is still a little iffy.
| Guest chapter 1 . 7/20/2012
Why...does your title have a random apostrophe in it? I know I should be focusing on the actual story instead of the title but I just found myself staring at it. Mean't isn't a word. (And if it was it would say "mean not" or something similar. So your title would say "What is, is not mean not to be.") It makes it look like you can't spell.
I confess I only read half of this[chapter] because the huge wall of text near the end made my eyes hurt just looking at it. Paragraph breaks are important, so try and make sure the formatting on FFNet hasn't messed up your story like this. The wall of text (the parts I managed to read) is riddled with errors. What is a 'kvetched father'? What does 'he mussitated' mean? Those are not words in the English language, which according to the top of the page, is the language this is written in. You need to work on that.
Storylinewise...eh. You're entitled to your interpretation of the characters but I imagined that children raised in times of constant war would be both more mature and more suspicious of strangers. Especially when you consider kids like Kakashi, who became a chuunin when he was like 6 years old.
I won't be reading anymore of this, sorry.

It's just that huge blocks of paragraphs hurt my head and eyes and make it hard for me to read. It's totally fine if you don't, though - I just like going back and re-reading things :)

Ripoff Report
jdbyrider1709 S Veterans Pkwy Bloomington, Illinois USA
jdbyrider Jd By rider is the biggest ripoff ever I warn you never to do business with them Bloomington Illinois
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I got a 2001 Buick lesabre from jdbyrider in October of 2012 they told me I would be done paying by December of 2014. Well when I first got the car I had to get an oil change within the 1st week. I had been making my payments on time and everything and my alignment started messing up withing the 1st 4 months and I could not drive without having to get a new tire they offered an interest free mechanical loan.I accepted the loan but when I started paying it and looking at my receipts the balance was going down but not by as much as I payed. I brought it to their attention it did get fixed but the car is so bad it keeps happening.
I had lost my job in November and I missed like 3 payments but when I got back on my feet I payed all of the late payments and one morning they took my car so I called and thought someone had stole it the representative at jdbyrider told me to call the police and call back he made it seem like he was very concerned. So I called the police and they told me that it has been repossessed so I called jdbyrider and told them I just made my payment of 200 the day before I am not late on my payment. So they did not return my car until 6 hours later and they did not want to talk to me about it my daughter missed school and I had to pay gas to get to work.They took my car for no reason and did not have the decency to apologize.
Then I called the office back because they said I have to pay extra for my payment being late I told them I pay extra on my note every 2 weeks when I pay and that's not because I am late because I am not late I pay on time. The lady then hung up in my face. I called back and asked for the supervisor and she immediately started to get loud and snap on me and hung up in my face and she was supposed to be the supervisor. So I called back to speak with her again her name is Lynn she would not let me get a word in and she would not let me speak with someone over her she just said " I am the supervisor" she then took my payment and hung up. So I called and spoke with Theresa and she basically tried to make it seem like I was in the wrong when I threatened to call the headquarters she was saying like they are going to look at everything on my account and see that when I was not working I missed payments and everything I hung up. JD Byrider is a ripoff and I do not recommend anyone go to them if they was the last car dealership on earth.

I agree to an extent. It's honestly only November, and Drouin is putting up ridiculous numbers. If he continues like this and into the playoffs his hype will grow too.
Side bar question. Is Mackinnon getting a lot of hype all around the country? I live in Halifax so it's normal to me, but is it all across Canada in general?
