Are you being paid to post to ScubaBoard?

Well, ok, here's the deal.

In another thread, I've been accused of being a paid shill for the airline cartel to come here and under the guise of a mild mannered scuba diver, to post views contrary to the prevailing wisdom that the world needs another good intentioned, yet misguided, law to protect the poor downtrodden air traveler.

Their "proof" was that I was articulate, and presented my views too well to be just some schmoe scuba diver. Now, since I can't argue that accusation intelligently without implicitly proving the very core of the accusation, I am forced to pursue the only course of action that I can think of.

Namely, make a poll.

So, it got me thinking. How many others might be out there lurking in the back pocket of some evil corporate empire? Hmmmm? Time to fess up.

I am being paid by easton to post positive things about their hockey sticks here. Does that count?

So where's the poll? (edit: OK...it suddenly appeared...it wasn't there at first!)

I get paid by someone to post here, but I can't tell you who.........sorry!
(at least while I'm at work anyway!)

I wouldn't worry about the intelligence thing though. Trolls aren't the brightest creatures in the fairy story book! :14:

Well......judging by how little that seems to get said, maybe you should consider increasing the size of the remuneration....
