I never knew how highly respected these guys were until I started asking around in the industry. You would be amazed at how often people in this industry will try to drop the name SHRINK or IRISH in an attempt to get credit at a given shop.
Putting Spiro to the side, I have to say that SHRINK and McIRISH are the two most well respected guys in the offshore industry. Patrick McIrish, often touted as the most experienced and impartial mediator in ANY industry at all, has earned his status by demonstrating his integrity over the years in the forums.
THE SHRINK is simply the fairest and most gentlemanly man in the world, the Irishman being a very close second. These guys take enough heat around these forums so it is time that someone come out and give credit where it is due.
jjgold is also considered one of the most well respected posters in the world. You can hear his name dropped in countless forums, including culinary forums. Often regarded as the original "professional poster," this guy has his bearings on straight and is highly regarded in the industry.
You should feel lucky to be surrounded by such a classy group of guys. I do.
