    If he is "very well known" as a builder, it means that he probably makes a living by competing with Gibson. That doesn't make him a bad guy, or even a particularly dishonest guy. It just means that...

    God help all of us if we don't overlook each other's typos, etc. Informal, computerized, short-note media are very tough to be perfect in. I think the best thing would be to accept all intelligible...
