You tell them Scott and keep up the good work!!!!

We here at linear hitting have long held the arguements you have so intelligenly and breviloquently posted on this discussion board. Your arguements have been succinct and clear. I too, can not understand why the "RHM" people don't comprehend what the hitting establishment has for decades endorsed and promoted. I see that you have listed your vast and distinguished resume regarding the amount of experience you have in this field. Its so refreshing to see someone with the dedication that you have so openly, honestly and imperiously bloviated via your response post on Wed Apr 27 22:18:04 2005.

We are now promoting your arguement with our newest video of hands staying outside the ball in this way: Have batter take normal stance as close to inside line of batters box. Bend 60-75 degrees at waist so that head is directly over outside edge of plate with hands positioned approx 4" away from rear shoulder. Take big crop hop as pitch is released keeping hands away from body and swing with hands going directly toward pitcher. Yell "Geronimo" and get the med kit ready! I can assure you that all of our batters using this style get hits alomost 95% of the time. Oh, I mean they GET HIT 95% of the time.

The title of this new video is tenatively called: "Linear Hitting; Why hit when you stay in, when you can swing and be out" It should be released this summer for around $19.95 and comes with a free bonus case of disposable ice packs.

Really Scott, its been entertaining up to this point. You remind me of the Amway salesman who shows up at the Avon convention, i.e. no buyers!

Keep up the good work

Mr. Linear!
