 Bogus message - RE Early Retirement
Author: L. Omar Henderson

Dear Folks,
Someone is playing a practical joke - note that the email address is not mine. I consideer it funny but posting under another person's name might possibly not be funny if the content was bogus and not the true belief of the supposed author.

I unfortunately will not be retiring early - I love my work and consider it the best way to greet the day. The Doctor's Products is a robust hobby that I also consider both fun and a service to the woodwind community (it may even break even this year in the cash flow department but not nearly enough to support my pension and love for fine instruments and musical "toys").

Thanks for the humor!
The Doctor

The first clue as to the bogus posting was that The Doctor would never spell "siphon" as "cyphon"...GBK

How do you know that this thread is not the bogus one and the one before was the real one just out of curiosity? the practical joke could be this L. Omar Henderson.
[Because <b>you're</b> an ignorant jerk that just got banned from the BBoard. Omar isn't. Mark C.]

GBK, "cyphon" would be one thing, but "cypon"? "Clarinetest" didn't quite make it with me, either.

How do we know who's who? The Doctor has always been rather meticulous in his posts, a well-educated and careful person -- not some jerk off the turnip truck. But to the jokester's credit, the first foray is labeled "(Not) L. Omar Henderson," and check the second one's return address. It isn't the sort of stuff you'd expect ifrom anyone seriously trying to defraud.

JMcAuley - I put the [Not] in there - it wasn't originally in there.

Mark: I wondered how I missed that on the first pass.

I take it all back -- somebody really *is* a jerk.

JMcAuley - because I edited the message part <b>after</b> you had read the message.

Why in the world would anyone want to impersonate the Doctor? People are idiots, you know? You'd think that everyone would be a little more mature than my age fourth-rooted. (Which would be 2, btw.)
