Rick-

Your question doesn't consider the original post.



Take a look, read what Mr Hurst wrote.




I'd seen comments of the same tune as Mr Hurst's concerns a couple or so years ago, asked around about Orlen - also posted a question or two on this website asking this group what the deal was with him.
As I'd been attempting to reach him myself on the telephone and via email with potential interest in having him work on a set of barrels -- with zero success, I wondered.
I ended up getting accused of mounting a smear campaign against Mike Orlen by some members of this community.
Haven't asked about him since.

I very strongly doubt that anyone here with an ass-pinch of integrity would doubt the word or honor of Ken Hurst.
I hope he gets his property back - at the very least in the condition it was when it left his hands.

Maybe he's too busy being a moderator on that forum to do his real work. Maybe he has a case of lazyassitis and needs to cash checks for works he hasn't done in order to pay for his treatments. Let's not jump to conclusions or allowing the facts to enter into this discussion.

Beware of Gunsmiths that "Moderate" Forums.

NO complaints in 36 months to the Better Business Bureau but the same complaints repeated here twice in the last several months. Contradictory experiences with Mr. Orlen? Sure sounds like it. So a series of unanswered emails and stalling phone calls produces the exasperation which leads to poisoning the well here but no other action. You guys are killing a man with kindness. Maybe if Andy W. had found the police at his door sooner he wouldn't have had the option of pursuing self-destruction quite so successfully. Time to take the gloves off and let the chips fall where they may.

now THAT is funny.....I don't care who you are......

Which illustrates the difference in USA & UK humour????????

Salopian.

Pardon the juxtaposition.



You refer to Steve's comment.




Steve gets it.

There appears to be controversy around issues of Mike Orlen's integrity in communication and throughput. I find this baffling.
I have compared a clique-like support for Mike Orlen in the face of a public call to action by one of our most generous, solid, and professional members to the fashion statement of the 'Stop Snitching' social movement within the rampant street gang and hardcore rap music communities.

'On the streets', citizens of certain urban areas are held subject to possible/inevitable harassment or harm if they are found to be 'snitches', or informants to community or law enforcement of the actions of street-gang members.

With the illustration above, I compare this trend to the zeitgeist around Mike Orlen among 'those who he will call back on the telephone' and such.
There appears to be some sort of secret handshake or 'gang sign' (as used by one of the apparent gang members above) one must use in order to ensure the consistent attention and allied support of Mike Orlen.

My gesture is definitely flippant.
It's meant to bring a bit of dark humor to the situation.
I hope you get it too.

I'm glad you clarified that Tinker. I thought for a minute you were just a Planet of the Apes movie fan and had posted that photo on the wrong BB.

No Greg.
Not a big fan of the Planet of the Apes films.

Just needed an image to properly illustrate the dark humor, as noted above.
