It's quite simple Ralph. I dislike the guy. We have had disagreements about matters concerning our mutual hobby.
Because of these disagreements he has added a letter to my last name, calling me Worme instead of Orme, on more than one occasion. He has had his girlfriend post a string of "yo' momma" jokes aimed at my mother without taking into consideration that my mom just might have died before the onslaught. I received a publicly posted threat by him to have his father pay me a visit, with a caveat asking me if I knew what his dad did for a living.......!
When I disagree with someone about something that affects me and my friends, I expect (or at least hope for) intelligent, reasoned responses, be they confrontational or not.
I haven't received such responses from Campiglia. His last response to my very valid question concerning his ties to ICG was no response. I asked him if he'd instruct ICG to remove his name from their grading chart. Either he doesn't want to (which I view as actively supporting grading and slabbing, and should qualify him to be on the Slabfree list), or he can't, which would take some explaining...
Bring on the gloves!
Bob
