Mr Howell
Please do! I think it would be great to have Mr. Boddington here. I have tremendous respect for him.

I think it would be a great idea, the beaty of JB here was when somebody got out of hand he eloquently put them in their place with great support fromthe bulk of thegroup or simply ignored them.
Boddington would he a great addition.

Love to have him here.
Some seem to disagree with him on certain topics, but the guy has been there/done that in many places, after many critters and he has experiences that'd put the most imaginative wannabe's to shame.
I'd sure like to see him here!

YES!!!!! Any writer who likes the .300 H&H can't be too bad. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> If he were to leave, it would be our loss. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Wish I could think of something eloquent to say too, so I'll just say "dittos" to what everyone else is saying. Would love to have him here. Love his book "Safari Rifles"- you can't find info on Nitro Express cartridges just anywhere.

Please do Dr. Howell, although I'll be surprised if he can spend as much time as MD (or a lot of us) spend here. He is one workaholic, busy guy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Good luck!

Can you block him from accessing the Classifieds Mr. Rick Bin? Would love to have his knowledge and experience join us, but there's already too many dang southpaws on this site that want to buy instead of sell! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Mr. Howell just tell him to come on strong in favor of SUCKS actions, Pac nor barrels, Leupy scopes and logging and he should do just fine! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> I'd say if he's as nice as most folks say and he certainly seems to know his way around a bolt, the only flames he would get are from the DFC's and the Larry's of the world and they don't seem to last too long around here. Course he better not log on campaining for Kerry <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> Hope it works out. 1ak

What kind of reception will you give him if he accepts my special invitation? How will you respond if he decides to stop coming among us?
Do you think that I should invite him? I'd be much pleased to see Craig here.

Well I say YES. I can only speak for myself in saying I would lovce to have him here and would treat him with nothing but respect. I would also ask that he be reminded that some of the bad apples on AR that gave him such a hard time might just find him here and re instate their attacks. That is not a representation of the rank and file here and I am sure Rick would step in rather swiftly.
The owner/moderator on AR doess not "moderate" really in any sense in that respect (good or bad ?)
I would love to have him here as I think he could add quite a bit.

I would greatly respect and enjoy his input. What a coup that would be to have the good Colonel at our campfire! By all means, make the request and thanks, Ken.

FWIW Dr. Howell, I too would LOVE to have him "come join us" here, I'd be VERY surprised if he was treated with anything but the utmost respect and admiration! As for his leaving(if he decides) that would (as was said) be our HUGE loss; My vote is PLEASE come on in to the "fire" Mr. Boddington!! We'd love to hear what you're working on, what your thoughts on everything are, etc. etc. etc. You are a very experienced writer, easy to read and understand, and IMHO very respected by most of us here!! AND his service to our country is admired, so how could anyone NOT treat him well??? (Yes I know they're born every day(minute?) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
