The "Bernie Holmes" Factor ...

A QUICK NOTE: "Bernie Holmes" is just one of many names that continually pop-up in the posts-for-approval box marked for the 'Comments' section of my blog. The person who is currently using this identity has used other pen names in the past; may well be using others right now, and probably will have many more in the future. This seems to be a hobby for this person who posts on various Internet Forums under that name. To me "Bernie Holmes" is somewhat akin to a Texas roach. You try to get rid of it as quickly as possible, because like roaches they breed and leave dirty stains behind them.

The reason for such persons posting comments to this blog, is not to add to any form of understanding of the subject under discussion, but to try to implant dirty stains on the work that will annoy readers. They represent the Rusling-Smith response to this blog wherein they attack me personally; or they try to link me to someone else; or they try to imply that 'The Trio' does not exist. None of that explains how and why I have been able to reveal information that Rusling and Smith wish to remain hidden, and which no other writer (outside of 'The Trio') has previously published.

Clearly I have not personally researched the information on my blog, I am just reporting what I have been given access to by 'The Trio' who have previously made broadcasts; written features for the press, and written articles published by academic journals, some of which has been previously published in book form. The supporters of Rusling-Smith seem to think that they can both steal (plagiarize) work by 'The Trio' and then twist it to support their own confidence game which tries to create the myth that Radio Caroline did not die on August 14, 1967, but it did. Its 'corpse' (the two radio ships), hung around until March 3, 1968 when they were suddenly towed away because they lacked insurance and they had become a financial and legal liability for the Dutch company which had been servicing them.

If you wish to comment on this blog I am very happy to receive and read your words about the content that you have read here, and I will post them Online. If on the other hand your aim is to post immature graffitti that has no connection to the subject matter and cannot possibly enlighten anyone, then it will be immediately deleted - before it ever appears on this site.

Later today I intend to post another substantive account relating to Pye and Bednall as their activities related to the start of Radio Caroline (1964-1967).
