That's a refreshing look at one of these events Daviet. Whats up with Marco! Didn't he get a gift

Poor guy was chewed up and spat out by the Internet Bonsai community lately. I would have thought he would have had a little more support with his NBW email. It was suggested that it was tongue in cheek but there is always truth to a joke. That's why it is funny.
I am neither here nor their about his email, It is an opinion that needed to be said, but I do think he needs to realise we can't all be travelling around the world working on some of the best trees around everyday.
Guess you can't expect too much from people we are only a 6 pack away from climbing back up the trees

Thank you for that Daiviet, I like the trees and notice Bill has his leg in a brace again.
Maybe thats what happens, when you dont give Marko a pressie, he gets the mob to break your leg
Cheers

It was a bit of a riddle but I think I managed to decypher what the NBW email is, see here:

Perhaps I'm the only daft bastard who hadn't read it? I'm going to have to read the 17 odd pages of the thread to understand what is going on, but it looks juicy. An initial thought is that it is interesting that someone has decided to make public an email they received privately.
Cheers,
Mojo

I think Marco is slightly pissed off with any one who does not like his TOOL.
Cheers

I dont think it was a private e-mail. From the looks of it, it seems that its an e-mail sent out to anyone and everyone who subscribes to his website and/or his tool.
Although he probably has a point, and there are probably armchair experts in every hobby, sport, etc... I think that there is a lot to be said for humility. Whatever the true reason for his e-mail, it certainly has directed a lot of attention towards the tool.

Yeah right on

after 30+ pages I think he has alienated half the Bonsai fraternity. Or at least the NBW's

Is that tool of the week or 'TOOL' of the week?

Nice Vid daviet thanks
Had not seen the thread over at 'nut, not the email from Marko, but after reading them I do reckon He is a bit of a tool.
As we all know from discussions here, when comments are posted thaty are a little controversial, they are always taken the wrong way! Email is no exception.

I just wish he wouldn't attack bonsai wankers. That's making fun of having sex with someone I really care about.
