I once had a forum member chastise me for supposedly plagiarizing forums for Honda technical how-to material on my website. It took my breath away. Nothing short of astonishing. It's like saying a seal team member got all his knowledge about covert operation from magazines. It's patently ludicrous. Stupid. And forums continue to call me incompetent, a shill, and worse.

You who get all your advice online, and believe the loudest, glitziest voices in the media, let me make a suggestion. Instead of listening to the ad hominem (personal attacks) and the extemporaneous (totally incongruous and inexpert) that characterizes online information, compare credentials. Then you'll know who and what to believe.
