seemed like just too much of a co-incidence that it led directly back to lockheed to me......................in made me wonder how often this goes on and if it routinely occurs on all forums including this one.
I would expect people to disclose any conflicts of interest. We have in the past had people who have voluntarily declared association. The only time there will be difficulty is when people are attached to organisations where the organisation itself disapproves of public participation etc... and they elect to comment using unidentifiable ndp's etc.....
I think the conspiracy element can get overstated though - and the quality of responses at a technical level were abysmal anyway - hardly worth anyone from lockmart seeing a need to defend their position.
on another note, I'd suggest that the quality of commentary would alert anyone with a contrarian view to stay away - its just not worth the effort to engage in debate who are that acutely deficient at a technical discussion level.
quite frankly, some of their technical counter claims about LO re/nee F-22 are frighteningly amateurish....
But anyway, that 'Bob is your uncle' guy, had little substance in his post, it was all about his 'sons' knowledge.
