Wow!! we have been open for only 24 hours and i already see so many familiar names... I can see that XPT has been giving you all a warm reception and i'd like to say too. All the hard work so far has been mainly XPT and longjohn. They are the ones that put in all the time to get this forum up and running and i have to say its looking great Who knows where this will lead but i think as long as we all show respect for each others ideas regardless of beliefs i have a feeling this is going to be a great place to hang out and also have some fun. Take advantage of the chat area also, JoJo has set that up for us all to use... who knows what we will find out about each other...

Yep... & I'll bet most folks couldn't help but notice how everybody seemed get along so well at the "truth" forum; as opposed to the hair-trigger atmosphere at the 60IF forum.
But then again, the whole mindset is different now coz most PIDer's are really starting from scratch at this point anyway, so I think that things will naturally be very different here.

As a strong PIA advocate, I can only promise that I shall do my very best to be respectful and tolerant and hope that will be reciprocated. If I cross over the line, let me know. I won't be offended.

As an Faul is not Paul advocate (I'm not sure that Paul is Dead) I can only say that I agree with you 100%. We can learn much from each others.

and that my friends is why we are here.. to learn from each other but in an adult manner. If the truth forum taught us anything it was that we can all get along and have fun regardless of our views.

wise words all, my friends. respect and fun, i love those two words. i agree we have learnt so much TOGETHER. and we can have a great home here, together, if you all want to. this feels great and of course, we're open minded in the most open of the words' meaning. open minded about the topic of discussion, open minded about the functioning of this forum (suggestions are always welcome) and definetly open minded about people. i'm sure i'm not the only one that may have a pre-determinded idea about some people just because someone said so, and at least i, refuse to continue with that. that was then, this is now. we're all new people and this is a new forum. i hope you're all enjoying this as much as i'm already enjoying this. have fun!! and welcome all!! ps. and a big thanks to my partners in crime, we've been through so much together... 5 hugs for my 5 buddies!! and hugs for my new friends here. i don't remember who said (i hope this doesn't sound too silly ) that "there are not strangers, just friends i haven't met yet". ;D ;D

. i don't remember who said (i hope this doesn't sound too silly ) that "there are not strangers, just friends i haven't met yet". ;D ;D Uugh.. A "people-person" must've said that! But anyway... yep, this is a good thread. Everybody agrees. There shouldn't be any reason why the PID & PIA crews can't discuss all this stuff on the same forum. We are all very interested in this Beatle related stuff & questions concerning what all really happened with those guys. Some of this mushiness will fade a little with time tho. Nothin' wrong with a good argument now & then!

The one thing I think most of us have in common here is that we believe that the 60IF document theory is dead, or at the very least was a fabrication which was exploited for someone's selfish gain. Is PIA, PID, or PWR? Heck, I don't know anything for certain, but I (just like anyone else) have my own belief system. And whoever it is that was playing and singing from 1966 to present sure made a significant contribution to the band and has realized quite a successful career, and I enjoy his music.
I agree with eyesbleed about everyone being able to discuss the issues, as long as we all maintain our objectivity and keep our cool. I know we will most likely see folks from both sides of the debate get offended and flare up at some point, some already have. The ability to deter that sort of thing rests with all of us, and, I will say this on behalf of some of my own affiliates, as long as the 60IF mode of dealing with skeptics is avoided many of the PIA people will make some worthwhile contributions here. I don't mean this to sound threatening or anything because I would like to see this board evolve into what the founders desire it to be. I'm only saying there is still some raw emotion and touchy feelings...most likey on all sides.
Thank you, Spanky, LJ, xpt626, and DarkHorse for inviting me here. I hope this forum realizes the same sort of success that The Truth forum has.
