Hi Tony,

You know one of the reasons I avoid DT now is due to the fact that a couple
of years back, I was getting 2-3 spam messages a day from DT. I politely
asked them, via email, to stop. They claimed they were not sending spam. So
I advised them to check and see who was stealing their logo and trademarks
and sent a copy of the spam back to them. Howie called my office on the
telephone to argue that those messages were not spam, and when my front desk
staff refused to have me get up in the middle of a bonding procedure to
speak to him, he proceeded to use the types of vulgar language (to this nice
lady) that I have not heard since working construction jobs. Also, Rod
Kxxrtx called me at home one Sunday afternoon to complain about something I
said on this NG (about 8 months prior) which got siphoned off into some
other web-page that he was surfing. His vocabulary and politeness was no
better than Howie's.

I figure I can easily just leave them to selling their assortment of
products, books and seminars.

The scary thing is that when I used to read that forum a lot, I was
frightened by the stupidity and lack of education of so many of these young
dentists. I wondered how they ever got a license.
