This thread is just like all the rest he participates in when members have the interest to address his inconsistencies, fabrications, outlandish statements, etc etc. He gets nasty, dodges most of the rebuttals and then he vanishes, only to come back again and start again.
I now am curious what blowout's grounds were for his being banned. I am not calling for his being banned from here. I actually think he has a great deal to offer but he is never wrong. Very thin skinned and unable to be humble. If I am wrong, I want someone telling me so I can learn. Travis thinks he has all the answers to everything and he simply ends up making a fool of himself.
