Hey Lewis, how is this not a free speech message board?

Dan Harris then responds:

If that's the case, why did you try to defend me by attempting to over rule the decision made by the coe enforcers at that time...

Dan, you are correct. And I failed. However...

If I ever need a hostile witness (to add credibility) to contradict a claim that this association is my alter-ego and that I have dictatorship power over it, I now know someone who has publicly admitted personal knowledge to the contrary.

Thanks!

[Nick Gromicko]

Lewis, you claim that you were paid up until June of 08. I'll take your word for it and offer to personally pay for 2 additional years membership.

What say you?

[Nick Gromicko]

Dan, with regard to your public admission that you have personal knowledge that I don't get my way here on important issues... funny you should bring that up. I was on the phone with Joe Farsetta just this afternoon and we some how got off on the subject of how the 2 of us simply don't agree on many issues but that we both try to work things out with the best interests of the membership in mind.

Joe Burkeson:

Good post as usual. I know that you and I are not big Bill Clinton fans, however he did say something that one can apply to InterNACHI:

"There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America. "

Thanks again, but no thanks. Poor old Joe F. would have a stroke if I took you up on your offer, then again maybe that would make it worth it, just a joke Joe.

Good then. Being an honorable man I trust that you will see to it that this offer and rejection, being so pertinent to the "whole truth" regarding your treatment by me, will be included in any existing or future public discussion by you on the matter.

Thanks in advance!

I hadn't planned on mentioning at all, except maybe in reply to people like Joe Burkeson and David Nice who seem to believe that life without InterNachi would be miserable.

Yet considering the "Whole Truth" I will continue to state that I was kicked out for what I said, posted, and argued, which as with almost anything Bushart and others disagree with, falls under the COE.

Facing expulsion for saying things that may be interpreted by certain individuals who disagree as violations of the COE impedes Freedom of Speech, Bushart would look even more asinine than normal if he stated that he kicked someone out for what they said without it supposedly violating his COE, hence the reliance on the COE as a discipline tool.

[Nick Gromicko]

I haven't got InterNACHI to the point where life without it, for someone in the inspection business anyway, would be considered "miserable"... yet. But I'm close (stay tuned... got something big coming this week). It is my master plan though. I confess.

As a frustrated ASHI Chapter president said in a memo on Friday: "He (presumably meaning me, Nick Gromicko) spoiled home inspectors. Prospects all ask to see our list of benefits. Even our regulars talk like they're being ripped off and want to know what their dues are buying them. Logo usage isn't enough anymore. Their (meaning InterNACHI) new logo is even better looking than ours."

Now the mistake made here is to think that I've directly done something to make non-members miserable. I haven't. They're only miserable when they look over at us.

Were humans all miserable before the invention of the TV, the car, refrigerators, central heat, the cell phone, air conditioning, and the internet? No. But not to have access to them now that they are available... might make one describe his/her situation as miserable.

Now I remember what Lewis is. The Wendy connection helped.

Lewis was not kicked out for anything posted on this board. He posted many, many anti-NACHI rants and rages that went ignored...until he decided to go out on the "other" message boards and, as a member of NACHI, speak for all of us to the public as to his anti-NACHI thoughts.

Such an act is in direct violation of the COE and his dismissal came as a direct result of his actions.

He continues to come here and drop his turds of wisdom, much as he did before, but at least now as he shares his venoumous comments about us on the other message boards...he does so with the same lack of credibility as the other "has beens" like dharris, Jerry Peckerhead and the rest.

Just a bunch of women scorned with a bent against their former lover....

Yes. Bitches. All of them.

[John McKenna]

Nick has offered Lewis reinstatement, added years of free membership and an olive
branch of peace. No matter what people say against Nick, his actions speak louder
than their words.

Go to the other message boards and see if they offer you anything like that.

Thanks Nick, for demonstrating how to carve a Turkey. Happy thanksgiving!

Hmm this twist is a little contradictory to the choice of members elected by the members to uphold the coe when I was kicked out.
If I recall the coe members that decided that I was to be removed campained for that position, and were elected by their fellow members to uphold the coe only to have their decision challanged by the person that holds the purse strings.

What is your orgs priority, upholding the coe per the members decision, or is it how much revenue can the org collect?

... the very fact that you are here and running your mouth says a lot
about Nick's character. You make him look good everytime you open
your mouth.

Nicks Character, I don't recall questioning his charactor, only methods used to control his org
I fail to see how a persons charactor, the same person that controls the orgs $s plays a role and has a say in a decision made by members elected to uphold an orgs coe, the coe that all orgs tell the public the members abide by.
Of course we cannot forget this same org creates certificiations based on the liminted knowelge of members to obtain the most $s and members, opposed to creating a certificiation that one must meet higher standards to earn the certificiation...

One only needs read the comments Mr Capaul made on this TIJ post to realize he should be banned from this board.
http://www.inspectorsjournal.com/for...?TOPIC_ID=6006
Unfortunatly my comments were edited out to make guys like him look better.
He claimes he wants free speech yet says nothing to Mike 'o handjob when he throws me out for the same thing he accuses NACHI of.
Lewis you are a hypocrite.
