    RE: The Canada Side RE: Niagra Falls today includi

    I agree. This this topic should have been started in the Layover section. But since the moderators allowed it to remain here, and since my posts were on topic, I posted here too, further down in the same thread. Moving the topic to Layover would be appropriate, as would editing out the personal attack. Despite the best efforts of people who strive to keep EO above board, some people seem bound and determined to drag the Open Forum into the gutter.

    Also, it is a copyright violation to copy a photo from my web site and publish it elsewhere without my consent. No consent was requested or granted in this case. I request that the photo showing Diane and me seated at a restaurant be removed.

    Maybe he has a point..
    I apologize Phillip for not holding myself to the same standard you seem to hold your self to.
    My comments although true in my mind would probably be better left unsaid.
    In respect of the Mods and other members I will hereby stay on my side of the fence and trust you will stay on yours..
    Thank you for your efforts at keeping EO above board.
    PS. To show you there are no hard feelings here is a cute and fuzzy bunny you can post on your website.

    RE: The Canada Side RE: Niagra Falls today includi

    As we are here to help, as well as entertain, here's another helpful tip: if you have dinner in the revolving restaurant at the top of the Skylon, and need to visit the facilities in the middle of your meal, don't be surprised when you don't find your table where you left it.... The tables revolve, but the powder rooms, in the core, don't!:+
    Oh, and don't set your personal items on the windowsill beside the table - that doesn't move either...:+ :+ :+

    Honestly Phil, I see your point about the comments but lighten up on the photo thing.

    If you don't know about this, as a web publisher you really should be part of Creative Commons ( http://creativecommons.org/ ). Us real authors/bloggers/opinion-hacks have been using this organization for a while with great success. I don't use it for my published work, i.e. disaster recovery training material and the articles I wrote for others.

    Also just to throw this in, maybe you should watermark the picturesc so you can source them if there are issues somewhere else?

    Mike, maybe that picture of the little fuzzy bunny needs to be moved to the fuzzy bunny forum?

    RE: The Canada Side RE: Niagra Falls today includi

    The falls have always been a beautiful place to vist. In looking at A Teams photos Phil appears to have a glass of wine in front of him. I find that surprising as he has always preached no alcohol when on duty.I would hope his wife drove after the meal as the Candian authorites take drinking and driving very seriously.

    I believe there is a straw sticking out from his drink. I am no wine snob, but a straw..... Most likely a Coke.
