Old Rasputin, this is true. It seems Nigel's views are still "too hot" even for most GLA leaders, and the once lively CB site has become a museum of artifacts. The articles about the BB's were an "easy sell" ... TC had been "priming" the audience for years. Much more difficult will be critiquing the similarities of Cleveland and Anaheim, along with "going back to the source." This is why the BB's have declared Nigel "public enemy #1," robbing TC of that coveted position.
I am waiting for a scholarly review of the concept of "deputy authority." This bad concept alone, carried out in practice, has done more to destroy the LC's than any other, and create one of the nastiest of denominations.
