Please, I meant no offense by 'try'.... I still have to try. I have somehow made enough enemies since Dr. Hyatt died, don't need another...
You are spot on, sure there's anxiety....I take mild umbrage at depicting Michael as my boss.... although that is what he kept trying to be. All that stuff on Yosts blog about Michael paying me to fuck with people is absolute bullshit. The anxiety stemmed more from crossing a very powerful person, simply by trying to do what my 'honor' forced me to. Which was to try and let John know that there was some ill will there....what has royally pissed me off is that not only did he publish all kinds of heinous untruths about me, he went and posted the very evidemce of the cross for Michael to see! It is literally the worst thing anyone has ever done to me, and I just want an answer - why?
Its like, say you and I are locked in the drunk tank.... Big Turk sidles up to me and whispers, I'm gonna fuck noform and then slit his throat..... Big Turk is not someone you mess with lightly.... So I smile and nod....then amble over toward you when Turk is asleep....and tell you to watch out..... and then you start shouting "HEY TURK, GREG JUST TOLD ME THAT YOU"RE GOING TO FUCK ME, AND THAT YOU'RE MOTHER IS A WHORE!" I mean, who does something like that?
Here's the truth of it.... I was Dr. Hyatt's student for about 5 years.....I moved to Arizona to study with him.... When he died, I was very hurt.... I went to his funeral, and shoveled dirt over his grave....Thats when I first started to deal with Michael.....because his Father had just died, and I felt for him. And by deal I mean nothing much more than friendly emails and some phone calls.
Months later, when the idea was tossed around to mess with Yost, I realized that instead of my being his noble ally in grief, he was much more like Big Turk, and I was in danger of getting Fucked if I wasn't careful..... despite that realization, and despite fear of reprisal, I did what I thought was the honorbale thing and contact John, who I had never met. I suppose no act of kindness goes unpunished. But I would do the smae thing again, given the same circumstance. I make no apology for it, even if Yost wants to try to twist things around and make it out as though I was somehow attacking him by doing it.
I am pissed, and my faith in people is fucked, and especially painful is that I am starting to wonder just who I got involved with when I signed up with the doc all those years ago, based on all of his old cohorts that I have dealt with so far....
That's a little over the top though, because some of his ex students that I have encountered have been good people to know....not all have been malicious.
I want to thank you though for your words, they make me feel slightly better. I have the suspicion that I will be kicked off of here soon, and my posts erased. In the meanwhile, I have nothing to hide, and no allegiance to any Hyatt group any longer....I have not so much as had a phone call with Michael in 2 months, and intend to keep it that way.... I have changed my phone number, my email,,,,,, I have moved to a different state.... in short, if there is anything I can do to help clear up this manufactured web of deciet that you mention, ask me and I'll tell you , as best I can.
Thanks again,
Greg
