   Tom, and others who have been misquaing and otherwise slandering Bill Main
by 
accusing him of condoning strokery. I went to the Mountain, and I spoke to Main.
her is what he said about the butt light horseshit, and gear rigging in
general. 
Let me p[reface this by reminding you all that he lives with and is friends
with 
the guys who make and do this nonsense, so he tries to not do anything to harm 
them, however, Tom Mount's comments have forced him to speak:

  " 1) He says, " You can see what I do, and that is the way I think is right.  
       Why would I recommend a different method than the one I helped develop   
       and use? 

  " 2) If they don't understand , why should I discuss it with them? 

  " 3) Everyone knows, including the old timers, that our way is best, they
just 
      don't want to say it. 

        This is what he said. He did not recommend that anyone use a buttlight,
         and nobopdy but a moron would recommend a swaure light. Sorry, it is 
         true. -g
