He is a very thoughtful man &#8212; a man full of thought &#8212; and he is never hard to find, since he&#8217;s always on the side of the angels.<\/p>\n<p>I think Jim is one of the most important voices on the RE.net, period, particularly on the subject of Realtor ethics. So why didn&#8217;t I invite him to join us a long time ago? Pure thoughtlessness on my part. For the most part we have added people by self-selection, and I have tried to avoid stepping on toes. (Honest, I have!)<\/p>\n<p>In any case, I finally caught a clue and thought to ask, and Jim was gracious enough to accept.<\/p>\n<p>Last night in email to me, Brian Brady pointed out that we had had 15 posts by nine contributors in the past two days. We&#8217;re not trying to overwhelm you, but we are trying to do what we came here to do.
