You should have taken the graceful and reasonable
exit you were offered. You didn't.


You see, JLA, that's your real problem. You tried to impose your draconian "peace terms" and when they were rejected, your little feelings got hurt. It's really all about your ego, and how it can't stand rejection. That's what this is really all about.

Now just leave me alone. I'll tell you what. Here's a peace deal for you.

If you prove that you believe in "do not post to or about" deals by stopping, NOW, from ANY posting to or about me, or posting about anything I'm posting about, and keep it up for six months without a single respite, then at the end of that time, you having shown the way, I will agree to the same deal vis-a-vis Poet. And no indirect posting through proxies. Total, absolute separation.

All that I need is two words in response. "I agree." Nothing more. Anything else will be a rejection of this deal.

You have your chance to be a hero. To accomplish what you claim you want to accomplish.

I'm betting your ego won't let you do it.

We'll see.

Post "I agree" and nothing else, and we have a deal.

Post anything else, and you have rejected the deal and proved that that goal isn't really what you wanted in the first place.
