It takes time, but it's worth it. That's what I tell my students. :)
So maybe they could let Felder back and then sue him.
But on another note I dont't think Felder could be blamed for the 1980 breakup when that transcript proves Glenn overacted.

I'm going to go back in the thread and do a little cleaning up so we can just forget about it and move on.
For future reference, would me saying that I think Felder may be narcissistic, cross the line?

Some words are more loaded than others. I wouldn't say "may be narcissistic" crosses the line, but a good rule of thumb is "if in doubt... leave it out."

You chose to omit a couple of words Glenn used where he said that he thought about Felder 'you selfish, ungrateful SOB'. I guess it didn't fit your interpretation.
But really, should be we still be rehashing this stuff over & over again when we should be trying to remember Glenn? What does it matter? Seriously. What on earth does it matter.

Yes, in reading over this thread, I couldn't help but feel that we're doing exactly what Felder did that made a lot of people angry - making it about him. In our disagreements, we should be careful not to make it about Felder, either, in a time of trying to honor and remember Glenn.

Re: Don Felder in the Press/Blogs/etc.
It's what happens when people are in an emotional state. +I was tempted - for a minute - to wade in with all the old arguments but realised there was no point. Arguing won't bring Glenn back or bring Don Felder closer to the reconciliation he's seeking.

Exactly, and now I'm leaving this thread never to return!
