Mr Procito was going to give us his version of the best way to use proper mechanics and generate bat speed - and then didn't. Unless it's buried in the threads, I can't seem to find it. Did I miss it? Thanks, Daniel

How could I be so naive as to think there was something for free. I am still calling your bluff, however. Play your hand or get out of the game.

> > > I strongly encourage people selling their knowledge for profit. That is the American way. I personally charge $300 an hour for my hitting knowledge. I don't want to brag but I have taught major league superstars and so did my father. What is ironic is that those who appreciate my service most are willing to pay $300 per hour, but yet there have been times in the past when, in the spirit of public relations and philanthropy I offered my knowledge and even an autographed copy of my book for FREE. And what did I get in return? Hostility and HATE-MAIL!! The moral of the story is, how much you get in return for your knowledge is a measure of the value of that knowledge.

> > "how much you get in return for your knowledge is a measure of the value of that knowledge" - good quote. I'm sure every conman in the world uses similar justifications for taking other people's money. It is simply a monetary measure of the marketing of that knowledge, however good or bad that knowledge is.

JLP,

Why do you repeat a comment that implies that something is wrong? You haven't heard what the "something" is. First of all, S. P. did not say it was easy. He said that there was just "one" best way to hit the ball hard. So, you start out by getting the whole point wrong and you know it dosen't work and you haven't hear it yet. Is there any wonder he doesn't post it? I wouldn't.

If you want S. P. critisize S. P. for not posting his ideas, fine. But you don't know what it is. Maybe it's because of people like you who start out attacking even before you know what is being said that keeps people from posting interesting and informative ideas on this site.
