Heh..... Well, from what I've seen, Mr Slim has not been able to let go of his falling out with Heatmaster. Due to this, he began attacking anyone and everyone who owns or condones one and ultimately led to everyone wanting to be nowhere near any thread where he is involved. It's been close to a year now I'd say? And the Facebook stuff is still almost a daily ordeal where he will dwell on a small tidbit and beat that dead horse into the ground while at the same time having no real information on the subject, or the info he does have is often irrelevant. It's a plague that nobody cares to be involved in, and the reason he is banned here as well as a couple Facebook groups.

These are my 2 pennies

Ugh!  I haven't been on the site since, I think, this past fall due to just being busy at work and home, and now I finally log in to browse and find out Slim is gone.  Sorry to hear that happened.  He was a fountain of good information when I got set up four years ago. 

I'll have to search for his old posts.  I know he had switched from P&M to Heatmaster.  You're saying he had a falling out with Heatmaster, the company?

I just checked out a facebook forum and agree that the format is not good.  I like having it laid out like this site, with categories to search in.  Endlessly facebook-scrolling through posts doesn't do it for me.

Was this recent? I thought he had said about a month ago he was sending all the Polar units back and was going to focus on his other job. Maybe I misunderstood

Hey schoppy, what happened to practicing what you preach? The only bad mouthing here is coming from you. It's really hurting my feelings too, keep it up and I might tell the teacher on you

Bring the slim man back early. If people don't like his posts, move on to next post, or debate the issue. I find some of his comments silly, but I like to see people challenged, not censored. Everyone seems mature enough to handle the comments. Let people come to their own conclusion.
