what a hell of a thing to wake up to ! unbelievable ! i never met, nor talked to monte, but had great respect and admiration for the man. he was not afraid of criticism of his views, but would take the time to explain why he believed as he did in detail. a very admirable trait in today's world ! i learned so much over the years from his posts, and at times, was afraid monte would be driven from this place by "keyboard kowboys". prayers and condolences to his family and friends. you will be greatly missed, and your contribution to this hobby/sport is priceless indeed.........
my hat will forever be off to you sir !
