About #Beatles (Mostly intended towards

About JP

JP, aka Kenny, is our channel Guru. I've been to many dalnet channels. I served as channel staff to around 20-30 channels, but to be honest, I found no one quite like JP. You'll say that a founder can be recognized through his grave mood and despotic activities, and I must admit, it is true for most of the channels. But here, at #Beatles, it took me over an year to figure out who was actually the founder. I don't like praising people directly, because it's against my religious teaching, and people get proud over themselves, which at the end harms them. But I can't help saying that JP is one of the most gentle and modest founder I've seen in my lifetime. He talks to everyone with the same complacent tone. I've never seen him losing his senses, or getting angry. Being a special channel, we've had our share of troublemakers and miscreants. He's the one who handled these situations very delicately. Oh! One more thing. Jp looks a lot like Paul. A true Beatlefan, indeed! Now that I got JP's pic uploaded, you can see it for yourself! if I ever go to Indiana, Kenny will be the first person that I'd meet, apart from the airline attendants, taxi driver and Mcdonalds people (if I have lunch before going to his place).
