First, let me apologize for missing a whole day but when I saw the postings, I had to back away before I said something that would require Imeo to remove me as an Associate.
One of the things about the internet that so many love is its anonymity. The downside to that is a person or their username is only known to others by the level of integrity or respect they give and receive.
What some don't comprehend is that old phrases like honor and respect are not granted for life. They are like a paycheck. You don't work for 2 weeks, get a paycheck and live on that indefinitely. You have to earn, just like a paycheck, every day.
That said, I have no issues with you CarolCrocbag. We have always got on well to my knowledge. What you may not realize is that there are no shades of gray in honesty. You are either honest or you are a liar.
Terms like "deception", "deceit", etc are just politically correct ways of calling someone a liar. As a forum moderator I only get to see a small bit more than the regular users but I can tell you that my friend Imeo is one of the most honorable and respected men I know.
I have seen users misrepresent, falsify and outright take from him. Imeo never makes a scene over it. He chooses to say someone made a mistake, give them the benefit Steve. And his reward for always allowing people the benefit of the doubt, he is treated like this.
Carol, what you call a "full picture" is like me or anyone else. It is what you want to make it in your own thinking. To come on a sub-forum and accuse a man with honor and decency of creating a deception about a few square centimeters of stainless steel mesh is ludicrous.
Imeo deserves better than that and while you seem vindicated in your quest for a "full picture", please recall what I said. It is a fact that we all are known here only by our words and deeds. In this case as in many others, Imeo has silently again proven himself to be a person deserving of our respect.
And for the record, Imeo made a video last May comparing the steel mesh against regular wick and his impressions on regular being better in his opinion. I hope I haven't put Imeo in a need to revoke me from his forum but some things just simply cannot go unchallenged.
