I was going to try to respond along the same line, and then read your
post.

Had you checked Google, which I suppose would be a first, you'd have
seen that I was trying to put your mind at ease about NN, or someone
who professes to be NN.

This post was considerably less valuable than most of his.
Does that make you a troll?

Well, not as such...There was only 1 person who bought a LA smooth plane
from us in the Bay Area that day, with the first name "Dave"....
Debated posting my note, for reasons of confidentiality, but it didn't
contain anything "new" - other than the confirmation he was telling the
truth...can't stand by and watch someone gettin' unjustly slimed...
Aside to B.A.D - let me know if you have any questions about it - my email's
public, and yours would be treated as confidential...
Cheers -

Will somebody explain to me what the heck Swingman is carrying on
about?? Apparently he's taken leave of his senses, so I doubt he will
be able to explain. :) did I miss a post?

This from someone who posts one-liners from an anonymous remailer?

Back in the days when I was a finishing supplier, I occasionally received
orders from, let's say, some of the more *colorful* personalities on
rec.norm. It was then I discovered the true art of diplomacy. I was also
amazed at how tolerant I became of someone when they were sending me their
hard-earned money for my stuff. It was humbling, to say the least.
I have never believed Dave to be a troll. I have my own opinions of his
rec.norm behavior, which I seem to type-out in excess, but likely as not,
he's probably nothing like the "personality" (tmSC) we encounter here on the
newsgroup.
I mean, he can't be, can he?

Believe it or not, I once won a spelling bee. My skills have clearly
eroded.
"Deferential: affected or ingratiating regard for another's wishes."
An example of this occurred a good many years ago when I received a
music box (among some other things) from Lee Valley/Veritas. The
machinery must have had just a cubic hair of spring left in it,
because when I opened the box, the teeth of the drum had moved and
become entangled in the packing film. I was able to loosen some
screws and safely free the teeth/tines from the packaging.
I called Rob's customer service people, as a courtesy, so that someone
less adept (man o man are those music boxes fiddly!) and less patient
would not encounter the same small glitch in shipping. They were most
appreciative for the information, and promptly refunded the shipping
on the entire order. This was totally unexpected.
Though I haven't had the opportunity lately, I will always return to
Lee-Valley when considering a new item of tool-porn.

O'Deen
p.s. I scored one of Rob's super-nice low-angle block planes at a
flea market, about two years ago. It had a teensy scuff onnit. $10.
That was a score!

ROTFLMAO I acually read that post of yours, but missed that part. I
thought he was responding to a post I'd missed from
he-who-shall-not-be-named, and was being facetious when he used words
like, literate, and, educational. Sorry about that. LMAO

Are you trying to tell me I paid too much BEFORE I even order the low
angle block plane at it's new price of $99? :)

Tommy, relax! I Google when searching archives or looking up something
on the 'net. Don't say "it would be a first". That's tacky.
So again, I ask you to share your tidbit or stop teasing about what YOU
know, that I DON'T about the poster.

Perhaps in an area of more than a million souls, there is another Dave?
:) I'm sure the dave in San Jose who ordered a plane (oh, yeah, a
smoother) will be happy with it. I wonder if the lucky fellow has
already received it?
