Default Robert L. Bass AKA Goofy Bass - BoBo - Scud - Larry Roberts - Does it again

Subject: re Bass

Message-id:

I'm sure this will do little good but when such an abominable lie is
repeatedly spread by such an abominable liar as Bass, I think it requires a
response. He knows I keep him in my killfile so I guess he figures he can
take these shots with impunity.

When he posts, "Not too long ago when he was begging for help I tried
to put aside our differences; privately offered to assist him and got
publicly slammed for it." he is lying! Anybody who wishes can check Google
for this group back in May/June of 2003 just after I got out of the
hospital. You will find no post from me asking for help. You will certainly
find no post from me "begging" for help. But being the bottom feeding
dishonest bit of sub-human slime he is, Bass has repeated this lie several
times.

I turned down offers from a few people who offered help when I said that I
would probably have to move and stop posting here. I have since managed to
get into the VA healthcare system which gets me my cardiac medications at $7
per prescription per month - a savings of a few hundred dollars each month.
That has allowed me to stay in the apartment I've been in for the past 7-8
years.

I did ask if anyone with the appropriate skills was interested in taking
over an application I wrote several years ago that gave those without the
ability to speak (from brain injury, ALS, CP, stroke, etc.) a way to control
their environment and use text-to-speech to "speak", even originating and
answering phone calls. I offered the sourcecode for free. Bass, being the
slime-ball, con-artist, hypocrite he is, sent an e-mail trying to wheedle me
into giving him the sourcecode. I guess he thought he could then sell it to
someone else - he certainly has demonstrated no programming skills nor even
a beginners understanding of computer related security issues although he
ridiculed my warnings about active scripting. (CERT and other computer
security experts this week recommended abandoning IE because of severe
security holes related to active scripting.) If Bass would like to settle
this in an appropriate venue, I can prove eveything I've said and disprove
everything he has said. Bass would be the last person on earth that I would
consider to take over the sourcecode.

I _gave_ that sourcecode to someone else who did have world-class
programming skills. I'm not sure if he did anything with it. I wrote it back
before the government would subsidize similar software so he may have
decided there was no longer a market. Or he may have been unimpressed with
it.

My diagnosis was severe congestive heart failure. My cardiologist has
steadily increased my dosage of the two main medications and I'm functioning
nearly as well, although with decreased mobility, as before. I'm trying to
finish off several DIY HA related projects in whatever time I have
remaining. Many are nearing completion.

The X-10 RF input module for the Ocelot/Leopard will probably be of interest
to the greatest number but I'm also working on porting Commander-X to an
embedded, networkable, under $100 system.
