Who is the most astute person on PPOT?

Just following the funny thread up.

Certainly not the only ones but the most visible.

Seahawk.

Nostatic.

I think they are both really bright guys as well as strong moral fiber/conviction and compassion.

Both write brilliantly. I think nostatic can be obscure, but if that is the same as astute, I'll vote yes.

Frankly it was a stupid question (non astute) because I just looked at the list of who is online at this moment and there are a dozen I'd list. But I guess I have to commit to something, so I'll throw out a wild card: McLovin.

In terms of guys operating with high raw IQs under the hood combined with a disposition that puts their HP to work effectively, Seahawk and Nostatic are top of the pops.

Tabs, of course, is the only operating prophet on the board, and so gets top billing. But as far as mere mortals go, it's Todd and Paul, off the top of my head with a couple others who can be mentioned in the same breath.

As far as Porsche knowledge is concerned ( and that is my main interest in being here) and the willingness to share that info, for me its Grady Clay. Hands down.
My thanks to you Grady.

Cheers Richard

Not me. I had to go to Wikipedia and look up "astute"...

If we were in the tech section, you would be correct and Grady has gotten the nod before along with Warren. But, the title says "PPOT." Grady is seldom, if ever, here.

So you, sir, are not astute.

An absolutely overall nearly frightening level of intelligence in this bunch. But the standouts for me, based on both intellect, life experience, and for lack of a better term, just being a general class act all the way around -

Seahawk
Dottore
Grady Clay (Seldom a PPOT poster but does on occasion - and is always great to email or talk to on the phone).

RPKESQ thinks he is. i believe in one single post the phrases "my 6th lunar landing," "partaking in a safari in botswana," and "i know everything" came out.

my humble opinion is that most people on this BBS are operating at a level much,much above average. And I've been here a little while.

nostatic was the first that came to mind.

many have their own strengths with specific subjects.
