RE: Galen Govier - A Story you probably haven't heard

[John Foft <john_foft@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To argue semantics, success doesn't mean to be better than someone else, it
means to attain a desired object or end. To succeed doesn't necessarily
imply that someone else fails... I think your analogy implies victimization.
I certainly don't feel like a victim. If your car is complete and mine is
not, you are a success. But am I a failure? Or am I a success in the making?
Are you standing on my shoulders?

I think it's wrong to form an opinion of someone or something simply on the
basis of one anecdote. A man should be judged by the body of his work, not
one perceived transgression...

I agree it would be business suicide to do some of the things mentioned, and

he should have a chance to answer these allegations. I also know that the 
majority of very successful people have gotten there by standing on the
shoulders, 
if not carcasses of others, not all, but many. Such is the nature of
success. 
Success by it's very meaning is to do better than others, thus others must
be 
beneath the successful correct? He should once again, have a chance to
defend 
these allegations, or at the very least, tell his side of the story. Does 
anyone know how to contact him, and does this groups forum even warrant his 
attention? What do you all think?
