The following is from Bo Short’s former diamond blog. This post is from August of 2004. The former diamond blog is no longer published, but if you poke around the internet a little, you might be able to find it.

Bo Short (August 25th, 2004):

“They must be getting desperate.”

These were the words I heard from someone last night as they introduced themselves as a distributor in a very large networking company. I replied, “What do you mean?”

He went on to tell me how the information on the Internet assisted him in seeing things for what they really were. He told me how he is now saving hundreds of dollars per month since he has stopped buying books, tapes and attending seminars that were purported to teach him how to “make his dreams come true,” yet he made nothing.

He then came back to his original statement. He pointed out to me that his upline began spending an inordinate amount of time discussing the Internet and its lack of credible information. He also was quick to say that my name was used quite often…in a not so pleasing fashion. His upline told him specifically, “You cannot trust the information on the Internet.”

He went on to add that it was his perception that the kingpins were very frustrated thus giving rise to their new Internet presence through blogs. He commented that the personal attacks, all character-driven, on those of us that are critical of certain aspects of the BSM business are evidence to the “frustration and desperation” of those people that cannot debate the issues on facts; as the facts do not support their claims.
