Do you know who the informant was or how the information
was "brought" to SI Jeff? Just curious.


I have answered this unequivocally in a number of posts.

No. I have no idea who the informant was, assuming there was one (you yourself mentioned that there might not have been one), and no, I have no idea how the information was brought to Jeff. I was as surprised by this as I assume you were.

At the time of the suspension I had no knowledge of Poet's multiple accounts. I suppose it is not impossible that they were mentioned to me in passing some time in the past, though I don't believe so, but if so, I have long since forgotten them. And when they were mentioned here they rang no bells in my memory.

But as to the suspension, let me make totally clear that I had absolutely nothing to do with it, direct or indirect.

Oh -- to be 100% accurate maybe I should qualify that. Someone suggested that Jeff suspended Poet to put a temporary halt to the exchanges between her and me. If that is true, then I suppose it could be said that I had an indirect role in it. But if that were the case, it was without my knowledge or involvement in any way. And the same could be said of many others who have been involved in the discussions -- it is not impossible that E, Laz, or others were also indirectly responsible.

But as to the intent of your question, no, it was not me or anybody acting on the basis of any request from me or any information provided by me or in any other way occuring by any act of mine.

Do you need it made any clearer?
