thank you for posting your information. and i will take some time to read through it.
also the guy i got this info from is one of the smartest individuals that i know (my brother). he has the ability to understand information in a way that many will miss.
does that mean that he is perfect? nope. he has made mistakes. and i will bring this up to him to see what he says.
but with the fact that he has tested the water, while i'm not going to blindly trust him. it does still make me concerned.
again i will bring this info to him. it should be an interesting conversation.
unrelated note here, but it will help you to understand his ability to look at things : when he messed up his heal of his foot. several doctors said there is nothing that you can do. it's permanent. he didn't like their answers, there was something in how they answered that just said "keep digging" . so he kept digging. he found out that if nothing is done (and time was running out) then it would be a life long issue .. he would (if I remember right) he would lose permanent feeling in the heal.
he kept doing research and calling people. he found a doctor in the cities. the doctor works on Minnesota Vikings players who had the same injury. the doctor said if he operates soon. it could be fixed. it got fixed. no issues at this point.
again i'm not saying my brother is perfect, please don't think that i am saying that he is.
he's definitely been wrong before. but with his ability to look at things in a different way and to not give up. he's found answers where others said there were none. he's found problems where others have missed the issue.
again thank you for the information.
edit: there are very few people i trust at the level that i trust my brother. it's the only reason i'm going to keep digging after you gave me the info.
Just remember to keep facts and figures as the most important thing when discerning the truth. Family may be trustworthy, they may be smart, but that doesn't mean they're experts in fields. You don't need to feel bad for trusting your brother, but know their limitations too.
Absolutely correct.
