free tip seekers

I do not write to please anybody but for 'swanth sukhoy' as they call it in sanskrit!
Long ago when I discovered-courtesy of one of my deceased friend, that I can express my views and opinions on the net I started writing on IR.com- only site available at that time, and must have written few hundred articles and perhaps more than 1000 responses. Free ,of course. Some of the articles were worth a research paper value. But in horse racing they don’t get that status- for obvious reasons.
After the departure of ‘old guards’ , I felt I’m unwanted by the new ‘guards’ and therefore , started this blog. I didn’t invite nor requested anybody to promote it .

I love horseracing and therefore, write about it . You may accept or reject what I say or write ,but if you respond –I expect you to be logical and sincere .
This is what I received from an anonymous writer :

Now , what should I say or write? Ignore it ,be more sarcastic or start to prove myself.
No I’ll will do none of above.

I’ve offered my tips for several years in IHRB and for a month on Turfparrot inApril 2008 because IR.com was out of action. A review on these is still available on IR.com under the heading ‘if a butterfly flaps her wings in Brazil….’ 9 out of 11 tips were correct – check it with the databank of –now defunct Turf parrot or with IHRB archives. What does it prove ? Nothing ,in fact, because you are as good as your last tip !

The final answer to this anonymous is – why should anybody(or a tipster) feed these freeloaders ?
Do I have an obligation- moral, legal, humanitarian or otherwise… I don't think so.
if somebody does not like what I say or write he can skip this blog or my writeups elsewhere...
But beggers can't be choosers and demand what they want...
A logical, reasoned out – may be outrageous reply will be appreciated and published…
