OK, guys. Everyone gets the point about releasing big bass--especially Todd who has already posted his take on it. I encourage C and R of bass, especially big ones, too. I respect his decision and didn't even mention "what he should have done" or "what I would have done" in my congrats to him. I used to mention C and R in years past but mellowed out as most guys know about it (some folks ask for guidelines and then I'll respond). Offering a "congrats" with a "I would have released it" is nothing more than a backhanded compliment. I know, I have done it many times in the past but no more.
