I remember when I met Michael. I was sitting in a
conference and some guy directly behind me was rather
loudly making it clear he was less than in awe of the
speaker. The speaker kept talking about some guy named
Craycraft and challenging his ideas from his Baluch book.
During the break I met Michael and discovered that he was
less than impressed because he was the guy being
attacked. I have always wondered why that fellow would go
on and on about Michael and not give him a chance to
respond. Sure, I sometimes disagree with Michael
Craycraft but I respect him and value his opinion. To
dismiss Craycraft casually would be the act of a fool.
Craycraft has an incredible eye for collectable rugs.
We may disagree on which clan of what sub-tribe wove a
particular rug but I have never seen Michael offer an
ugly rug.
