Whoa a second there.

I take full responsibility for what I post. Much of it is intended in the spirit of fun, but I accept that it doesn't always come through that way. Which is too bad, but that's life.

I'm not about to duck responsibility for it. But my responsibility ends with what I post.

I don't have any "boys." I'm not part of any gang. Don't know what made you post that, but it's false.

And I don't harass people -- I very seldom post more than once to a person unless they reply to me. If people don't want me posting to them, they can just ignore me and I quickly go away. But if they attack first, or if they engage me, I feel free to engage right back. You find anybody to whom I have posted two -- no, I'll say three, maybe I've posted twice on rare occasion -- on a single topic without their having posted back to me in the interim. Or three times in any week without their having posted back in the interim. I can't recall it ever happening. That would be harassing. But I don't do it. Exchanging posts with a person, even if they're flame wars, isn't, IMO, harassment.

And I don't harangue people with PMs, either.

I'm well aware that there's a person here who's stirred up all sorts of accusations about me. I'm not the first that's happened to, nor will I be the last. Not much one can do about that.

But I don't expect a fellow Westerner to buy into it when the facts don't support it.
