I think I'll just sit and watch Norms show with the respect he has "earned" over the last 17+ years of providing inspriation to us of little skill. I KNOW I will learn a techniqe or skill that will help me be a better woodworker.
I supect many of us are part of this forum because of him, not inspite of him.
I'd sure be embarrased for him to see this thread.

Ken, I couldn't have said it better! I would venture to say that thanks to Norm, our ranks have expanded and with that, so has the opportunities for better products and information out there due to our numbers. I know that besides my grandfather, my interest in woodworking has been mainly due to Norms inspiration. I think it is borderline blasphemy to even think negatively of Norm.
There's one in every crowd......and it's usually me!
