I agree with Paul. I have found George to be very passionate about what he is doing. I don't necessarily think he is the best communicator (and he has admitted such to me), and he can go overboard at times, but I think I know enough about people and their personalities to see that George just might be a little rough around the edges and that translates into a failure to communicate that can rub people the wrong way. In many ways he reminds me of Audiogon member Rauliruegas. Raul is one of the most passionate people I know when it comes to analog, and his participation in threads while well intentioned, can definitely alienate some people. Some of the same adjectives applied to George have been applied to Raul, and then some. On a personal level my dealings with both of these members have been educational and each has helped me with increasing the enjoyment of my system through their advice and in George's case, his LSA.
Sometimes you need to peel back the onion and get down into the other layers. I'd love to head down under to visit George and quaff a few beers with him. His personality reminds me of some of my blue collars buddies from back East.
