IF they choose to return, would everyone please try to agree to disagree with respect for one another? And if there is a disagreement, could everyone try to be open to hearing their reasoning by asking WHY they believe as they do? And if disagreement still is there then RESPECTFULLY explain your own reasoning?
I feel we are all here to learn as much as we can and having them around is a learning tool we could never hope to get without going to school ourselves for meteorology. Being a student now, yes, you may have learned alot, but remember - not until you are actually out there working in the real world of the tropics will you truly be able to have the experience they have or maybe even the tools they have at their disposal.
One thing I have noticed is ego's seem to be fragile at times which can be understandable with all the tension a storm seems to bring, but ego's can keep us all from benefitting from the learning experience when they get in the way.
Let's learn and have fun while we are here and strive to respect each others ideas and experience. Guys - please come back.
Storm2K has given us this wonderful place to learn and have fun and I think if we all agree to work with each other rather than against each other, that would be one of the very best gifts we could give back to them (other than a donation of course
) Keeping it an enjoyable and educational site for all. Thank you Storm2K for putting up with us all!
