How Jim started H***n.
Gary:
$1200 to build and only $300 a month to operate and where are the two cute blondes?
Seriously though, I think he did a great job. Many service techs I know could not do that and they are paid spa techs.

Dear Cooltoy2000,
I don't know you either. I do know that it is entirely possible to insult someone you do not know. If you want to share a private joke with Jim you should probably share it privately instead of posting it on an internet forum available to everyone in the world. I understand that I have posted my thoughts on a home-built hot tub in a forum that is also available to anyone, but I hope that people who post comments that refer to my web pages will have the personal integrity to explain their opinions instead of just implying that my project is in some manner inferior. Now that you have entered a post on an open forum that appears to insult my efforts I think that you should be willing to explain yourself. If you want to insult my project and/or my web page...be man enough to do it directly.
I don't hang out on this forum because I honestly find the elitist attitude of many of the posts tiring. I am not the least bit interested in endlessly debating the merits of a 14 degree slope to the seat vs. a 16 degree slope, or is 3.7gpm better than 3.8gpm, or is the finish of brand "X" 10 microns smoother than the finish of brand "Y"...
The best hot tub I ever experienced was in the middle of nowhere SE Idaho, had uneven rock walls and a muddy/sandy bottom.
Thanks anne.
Gary, If you honestly can't find the two cute blondes on my page we're going to go "round and round." I'm real fond of both of them and I will be required to defend their honor.
Cheers,
Kelly McCoy

What I don't understand is why you feel I insulted you. Is it not possible that I was giving you a compliment? All I did is post a link, I did not make a single comment, be it positive or negative.
Jim is a small dealer/manufacturer of what his customers see as safe, quality made hot tubs.

Mr McCoy has been nothing but gracious about this, and you couldda just apologized, and all would be well. Instead, you skirt around a sensitive issue, backtreading and calling it a complement. It is not secret that Jim is not well regarded here. I have never met him, and do not intend to, but reading at his site makes my blood boil, so I'd be very peeved if someone compared him to me. You probably did not think about the fact that there was a real person with a real life behind the link that you posted, and I think that is one of the sad things about the internet and its ethereal society. I can completely understand that, but it doesn't make it ok.
