As most of you know, I've been unfairly harsh in my criticism of Clive Clynick, and his work. I was a bit surprised to find three of his books in my mailbox, with a letter from the woman that sent them, explaining in detail how they helped her become more confident, and proficient with her machines, and her beach hunting technique. I read the books.
Responding to her letter, I agreed that they were easy to understand, and did indeed have some very good advice in them. About a week ago, I sent them back, and promised I would apologize to Clive, publicly.
Clive, I can now say that I have read some of your work, and you have my sincere apology for my ill conceived attacks on you, and your books. I was wrong, pure and simple. You are an extremely accomplished treasure hunter, detectorist, and author. I'm sorry.
As cool as I think I am, I can be a real idiot sometimes as well. Gosh, that was hard to admit! God Bless - Terry
