Last time I saw him was at the Success day at Las Vegas in September 2005. I want to converse with him and thank him for sending out over 300 letters and starting his forum. Many of us here would not have known to move over here to this forum without his pioneering innovations.
If you are here, then how are you Mister Sparky?

| His website ,seems to me to be advertising disguised as a forum. Alot of discussions seem to end up alluding to ESI. Just my opinion.

| Please continue to be nice. Patrick told me, in person, face to face, that his forum started up before ESI contacted him.
I believe him.
He is working for ESI as he admits as a "poster boy" not the other way around. He does not need ESI. ESI needs him.
I think the forum(s) actually undermine ESI since we can share the same information that ESI has. The ESI managers admit that we all have the same information, it is just that they clean it up and make it easy to implement these common ideas and techniques, by hiring expensive consultants who pull it together and promote it.

And I believe him too. BUT, that doesn't mean the forum, and it's intent, didn't change to a marketing campaign after he signed on with ESI. Summary...Shifting the focus from helping your peers, to generating income.

Oh my. This is a huge statement; one that we cannot allow to go unnoticed... Have I not been saying this myself in every post for the last 2 months?
Ahhh....vindicated at last. 
Whoop Whoop!

| I wasnt intending to be not nice. I have been to the ESI sponsored forum and it honestly seems to be an advertisement 70% of the time, it just seems to allude that Joe contractor would be better off with ESI guidance.

| I was called by ESI after one of my first posts on that forum. Got the whole evasive sales pitch, no answers.
The salesman TOLD me that they monitor that forum looking for new meat(ad libbing). You must login to even VIEW the posts. THEY ARE WATCHING.
