If you read all of his “Taking My Hacks” that resemble anything approaching a response to criticism, you start to see several obvious themes — Joe has extraordinarily thin skin; and Joe thinks we should all just shut up and thank him for leaving the hobby in a better place than where he found it.

Reminds me of Colonel Jessup...
