Bonnie,

Count me in the group of people who noticed and have been very upset by the collective shunning. IMO, the months of derision and snide remarks (not to mention nasty PM's) you've received at the hands of self-proclaimed "decent people" is despicable.

I've not been around too much over the past couple of days, but I've noticed more people questioning Voltaire's methods over on the Mod Porch. Each person is denigrated and called a member of some organized cabal formed to bring Voltaire down. This is untrue and a convenient fiction on their part.

I'm merely watching as the year draws to a close and people begin to either express how much they were hurt by cries of "buy today folks, my angels protect me" or let Voltaire off his own hook by saying their choices were entirely their own. The day I see even one of his followers post that he or she was hurt by following Voltaire's calls -- and be met with real sympathy, I'll know things have changed over there. Until that time it will continue to be a long slow ride into financial ruin for those who continue to hear Voltaire's angels.
