Hiya Tony:

 

While you may be correct in your assessment (I surely don't know), I will have to ask you to keep the conversation polite.

 

Please make your point without name-calling.

 

Thanks,

Hanero is a bullshit artist - the perfect example of "talk is cheap".

When asked for photos or details of the machines or items he claims he makes....
