<mizerydearia> oh
<mizerydearia> well, you DEFINITELY should check it out

<mizerydearia> Sorry to bother you again.  Just for clarification, are you in SF or just nearby?  I posted about ya at http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6237.msg92379#msg92379

In my opinion, if someone said they were not interested, you should just leave them alone. It's their loss. As John Lennon once said: "You can not tell people anything - you can only leave signpost. They have to find the way for themselves"

I think what he did was fine. He sent the URLs as he said "nope", and then left with a "are you sure?"

He came back a few minutes later offering him money, which was kind, and after that left him alone.

I agree, I was a~~two~~three tad bits obnoxious. Particularly I put a bit more effort than normal due to circumstance or desire of organizing a Bitcoin micro-party in San Francisco (http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6237) and realizing they were from San Francisco I was excited to potentially introduce them and gift them generously. But they declined to accept. =/

For any long-term goal, the soft sell beats the hard sell. Always.
