: Taking out your frustrations on Brendon won't make your movie come true. If posting on this site meant that Great Lakes topics would make it to the silver screen.. then many of us documentary peons would be millionaires by now.
: This site is an incredible resource to connect divers from all around the lakes. It ties us to resources that we would have to spend THOUSANDS of dollars to access (travel-hotel-food-TIME). Lucky for us, Brendon and his group of volunteers love to research.. and it makes (at least for me) the cost of doing local maritime documentaries possible.
: There will always be rumours of a Fitz movie. It's an amazing and tragic story. But promoting something when it's still just an idea (or script) isn't news. I'm looking forward to the time you can post a theater and time for me to see it.

Mr. Mixter:
I think you may have misunderstood my previous posting just a bit: I am not directly involved in the production of the FITZ movie nor do I maintain a close relationship to Mr. Williamson.
My message was meant to express MY opinion that what Mr. Baillod did (barring Mr. Williamson from further access to this message board) is simply not fair. I for one was most interested in what Matt had to say about his work; his attempts to get to the bottom of the negative rumors about Tom Farnquist seemed rational enough.
