I agree, Harvey, and was personally offended by Gayle's offensive language in several emails he sent to me, and us, today, on Sunday. I'm not an especially religious person, and my language is not always perfect, but I certainly attempt to write professionally and as an adult, esp on the internet. He's obviously upset, since he "did nothing wrong". But by the same token, I'm upset too, and all I did wrong was listen to him hype and promote GIFS, while demeaning any negative comments trickling over from SI. As journalism goes, his was mighty slanted and biased.
For all shareholders, when I first received the information this weekend on Kenneth Babcock's (who provides the software used by me as the SAC moderator) association with Gayle Essary, my reaction was to immediately resign as moderator. After some discussion and thought, I now intend to talk with my ISP about implementing my own software, where I can be sure any communications to shareholders will go out. I don't know if there has been prior censorship, but do know that on at least one occasion one shareholder on the list did not receive my posts (and he is a vocal and frequent poster on this issue, so very public).
And I was most intrigued by Gayle's explanation of Trafalmodore, sorry it wasn't included in Ken's repost of one of the emails. Ken, how about posting that for the benefit of all, they deserve to know what planet Gayle claims to be from, after all. And the "passion-less" quality we can expect from a native of that system!!
