If you are wanting Shannon to do something such as make a product that is to your liking...
have you ever heard that you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar?
I don't know if you are meaning to antagonize anyone, but when you post something that will likely be perceived as confrontational...
Have you ever heard of don't bite the hand that feeds you?
You've also noticed you've drawn a bit of ridicule. When you confront a popular individual (especially a respected leader) in an antagonistic fashion, you might alienate yourself from others.
If you won't consider all this for your own reasons, how about altruistic or empathetic ones?
Shannon is a person with a life and feelings, just like you have a life and feelings. There are those of us who are reaching out in benevolent ways because we appreciate the efforts and successes Shannon has provided, if not for us then for others. I really believe Shannon is making the world a better place. How many free items has he given away to people who have benefited?
And he puts up with all my nit-picking questions too.
I've certainly benefited from the DMSI series in ways I had not anticipated.
Perhaps you could turn your criticisms into ways to constructively suggest improvements for Shannon's programs. He does read ideas other people present and run them through a model. I think he's considered a few of mine. Some I think he found interesting or intriguing, which to me says a lot considering he probably already thinks things through from many angles.
You can have the last word to this post if you want. I've said all I wanted to say about it.
