I heard rumor that an immigration advisor, one who wrote an article on E-2 laws for one of the English Newspapers, is also on Dave's ESL. Is this true? How do I contact him or her?

The OP is referring the Korean immigration "adviser" (or something) that wrote pieces in the English-language papers earlier this year in regards to the new E-2 visa changes. Other expat columnists cited him and said he was helpful when they talked to him.

But I don't remember the guy's name and I don't have links to his articles, but they were posted and commented about here on Dave's.

About 2 weeks ago, another poster mentioned the guy by name on a thread and even mentioned he joined Dave's, but never became active or helpful.

He did create an account on Dave's, but after seeing all the ridiculous tripe that people here posted about him, I don't think he came back. Can't say I blame him, either.

I've corresponded with him several times by e-mail. He's very pleasant and helpful�as long as you don't take an arrogant or aggressive tone with him. You'll catch far more flies with honey than with vinegar.

And after all the tripe he wrote about us in the paper, do you blame people for coming down hard on him?

He never replied to my comments. Shame I have been in vain for an awfully long time.

Accusing him of being a pedophile? Or running a brothel? Using all sorts of expletives? Yes, I absolutely blame the people who did that kind of stuff. It's people like that who give the vast majority of us a bad name.
