Joe,
What exactly would TAPE and others have to do in order to make peace with you and make this thing go away?

This was my counter

Oh and on my counter, please strike anything that involves Bill Parker, The Holdens, and behavioral Measures.

As everyone knows, peace was made with that at APA Chicago, and they have more than kept their word, and I will keep mine.  I will in interesting to note, that peace was made with a cigar, a handshake, and pleasant conversation, and the peace stuck.   

So yea, anyone who says I won't let it go, might want to look at that history.

Now it's going to require a mix of what they want and what I want, with a few additions.   

As usual, I'm sure I'll be required to be the bigger man, just like I tried to be in 2014; until they slapped me in the face with my willingness to act in good faith.   

One of the demands, is TAPE will convene an independent ethics committee investigation for not only the complaint I sent them on maria, but the complaint filled earlier this year by that woman she went bat shit crazy on for mentioning my name.  TAPE will also have to agree to put the same leash on her, than they would expect on me.

I don't think that is at all unfair

It's about everyones right, to compete in a market that is about healthy competition.  Not just mine.  Everyone has a right to compete, without being restricted, and without fear of anti competitive behaviors.

Also, every examinee has a right to a fair, independent, and unbiaed polygraph test. 

There is more than enough business to go around for everyone, and while no one will ever like everyone, that doesn't mean you have to step on anther persons business unfairly, just to be a douche.

I am all for fair competition, and that means contesting your product, or personal service against someone else's.  This is capitalism.   

I don't want to be the big boy on the block, I never did.  I just want to compete.   

I also do think I am owed some apologies.  I don't see what the problem is with this.  Rick and I did it just fine and shocked the hell out of everyone at APA.  Rick, Jay, and I, all walked out of there feeling better, and no one walked away with their tail between their legs.   

It is possible, problem is Maria, and a few others, don't want it to be possible.  They resent me for standing up for myself, they resent me for being right, they resent me for being able to prove it, and they resent me for hang the guts to fight toe to toe.  When they got dirty, I got dirty.  I gave as good as I got.

I deserve some vindication.  At minimum, I deserve what I was entitled to in 2008 and 2009; a fair shot.

The polygraph community deserves to have this DONE.  Just like I feel I have been punished disproportionate to my crime, I think the polygraph community has put up with this longer than needed.  This could have all been done in 2014.  But someone had a problem with that, and she has been screaming bloody murder since.   

Again, I know some might see me as beating a dead horse, but a dead horse doesn't go around kicking sleeping dogs.

Joe, what would Whitey Bulger have done if Texans blew into Southie and started running rackets there?

Funny you mention that.  There would have been an understanding made.  I don't know what movies you're watching, but clipping someone is not the first thing that happens.  It's too high profile, and bad for business.   

I can tell you this too.  Jimmy would have taken someone like me, and made me someone he could count on.  You don't waste talent.  If the guy gets kick down, and he gets back up, and keeps getting back up, you make that work for you; because making it work against you means more work for you to handle it later.   

If you have an earner, or someone with potential, and you chase it way, the only person you hurt was you.

This is street 101.   

Never run anyone out, you think might come in handy later; and if you're not strong, you better be smaht 

Even Jimmy knew enough to make friends with the Italians
