Sterling Allan No Longer Heading Peswiki

Post by primemignonite »

Over at PESwiki things are happening.

It would seem that Sterling Allan has now exited the leadership position there.

Sterling Allan passes PES baton to Aaron Willis

http://pesn.com/2015/01/12/9602591_Ster ... on-Willis/

I'd read on the home page a confession/lamentation of a sort by Sterling Allan, which seemed a very sad thing to me. One has to read between many lines for the essence of the intense difficulty he finds himself in, but this now seems to have disappeared.

I have always admired Mr. Allan for what he did and the way he did it, as a real gentleman of honest, gently-probing investigation of all subjects-PM, his style being uniquely his own.

I think the chap deserves some support, and likely would be uplifted some by a note or two of it.

Sorry to disagree; his style was not always uniquely his own. His confessions and lamentations so to speak are overdue. I have never forgave him for plagiarizing my work, and giving credit to a friend for work I posted on a now defunct forum in the early 1990's while working in collaboration with Bill Muller on his high frequency motor- generator.

Hi,

I hope now I can get my website address removed as I requested, or maybe I will not need to now, I most say I was not impressed with my dealings with him, and will leave it there.
I have been wrong before!
I have been right before!

Regarding the two previous posters above and their contrary views, I know nothing of any such personal matters or issues as they do, or may have had with SA.

What I do know of him was that his interviews and appearances on various broadcasts dealing with PM, seemed ones exemplary, these being such as to attitude and investigative procedure, and personally interactive measure. (Also, his general demeanor seemed a thing rather well-honed.)

As far as this one writer is concerned, at very least, he comported himself in a gentlemanly way, and appeared as a credit to the more rational pursuit of the thus far unattainable.

(This same, unfortunately, I could not in any such way apply to certain of posters active on this site.)

I never had any personal contact of any sort with the fellow; I shall continue to wish him nothing but well.

Peswiki and pesn have been abandoned for months now... I have sent many emails and gotten nothing back.

Its a shame that alot of stuff there was lost/non-carried thru in the newest format before it was abandoned...

It was a huge reservoir of what's known out there and its dead now.

Anybody heard anything I have not?

I've had this concern for some time. My concern is with Dr OhNo. What is going to become of all the work he's done when he has to leave and as I suppose goes home to meet my client. (or as some imagine, what ever).

Who's going to pick up the shtick when the mighty Ovus leaves us. I know I misspelted it.

Peswiki.com and Pesn.com are deceased... Does anybody know of any other news aggregators out there like they were? Overunity.com is bad and some of what I find out there on the internet is more garbage/spam than not.

Better than a kick up the arse, as the saying goes. :-)

I'll just look up my granddaughter's website.

http://www.worthofweb.com/website-value/bloglovin.com/

Bloody Hell!

If I owned that I'd sell it and retire!!!
(Unfortunately she doesn't)

What am I talking about? I AM retired.

I'll forget my own head next.

Overunity is bloody awful.

As a matter of fact this website is the one I have found easiest to use. Maybe it's because I'm so used to it.

My question is how much will GM be worth when The Don is done tweeting about it?
Today doesn't look like the best time to buy but it also doesn't look like the worse.
It pays a dividend, low PE. One could do worse. For instance selling www.orffyre.com
for $3k usd. It would cost that much to get a skeleton of a site together without any content.
Bill's content is where the cheese is. I think he'd give it to a friend or family before he'd sell it
at $3k. Who knows, maybe the 2nd mouse might get into the wheel (will). . .

Bessler Wheel? $3k would be insulting too.
