Does being a "newbie" mean his reviews are BS? You say he bashes when your doing the bashing. You being an old timer on TER and you pay tourist prices? That I find VERY VERY ODD. I personaly know jackson and know most providers in this state. You i dont know. How about you meeting some of us boys for a drink sometime? We can always use safe friends in this business. Me? I may be a newbie or I may be a long time lurker. It is what it is. Cheers Dan

First of all I am not provider bashing.  Anyone that knows me knows I fully respect providers and what they provide to all hobbyist.  Second, I am far from a newbie.  I do not post on this board a lot but have been hobbying for many years.  I much prefer to use backchannel groups as i feel in many cases its safer.  Since you are a provider yourself you should know what I mean by back channel groups.  Lauren is great I said that.  But as a hobbyist I think pricing should be the same and if a hobbyist doesn't want to spend that much there are many alternatives in the marketplace.  My other handle is Landlord.  So hopeuflly I have clarified my position and you understand no one was bashing Lauren.  Only looking for better rates.
