I could not help baiting DT-WRISK at GoPBI

I am really pissing him off. Perhaps he will lighten up after venting at me and I tell him the joke is on him. I have no idea if the TW will be FISH its way to far E at this point however I will continue to tell DT it will be a FISH.

Katdaddy.. Yea I saw that lol.. I am not sure of the whole DT story on this board. I have seen enough of his posts to realize his bedside manner is poor and its easy to anger him:):). That said in between his temper tantrums he does have some good insight into the tropics:):).. I just try to stay out of the frays if I can lol:):)

I didn't see your post that WREL's models offer "proof" of a fish.

If so, I'd have gone off. Hours a week are devoted to keeping the %^&*#@! maps current. That is not an endorsement on their accuracy. As I posted over there, it's nuts to think any model will verify at +D3 on a wave...not a TC...a wave at 9 and 30.

Yes, I sensed the tongue in cheek response:):). The tropics sure do fire people up don't they:):)

Scott.. I don't know how you got the impression I thought your maps offer proof that this system was a fish, that wasn't my intention and I am sorry if thats how you took it. I posted about the models showing that now they where trending not to go to out to Sea. I realize your maps only plot what the models show:):) I wasn't being critical of your maps, in fact my message had nothing to do about your maps at all so I don't understand how you took it as such:):0. My comment was pretty straight to the point I felt, The latest 00z models where not showing a turn to Sea. Like I said in another messaGE , I like your maps:):)

No offense taken at all. :D
David posted you offered WREL's map as "proof"...I am always quick on the draw reminding folks they prove nothing until near unanimous close to land...and even then, sometimes *poof* (Debby and Lili come to mind).

Appreciate the nice comments about the maps, too, Kat.

Scott... yes, I did see his post mentioning that after I started reading. I have no idea why anyone would blame your maps for anything lol.. You do great work on your maps. I run a site also and I realize that some people don't know how much work goes into projects like that and when you think someone is downgrading your work it can irrate the heck out of you:):). Thats why I wanted to make sure you understood my message was in no way about your maps and in no way was I attempting to cut your fine work down. You do great work with your maps you really do. I do have one request though:):).. Think you Yankee fans could let a long suffering Cub fan win a world series in my lifetime? lol
