To SI members.....there is an individual who seems to harbor a deep hatred that has been resulting in public posts about me like the more recent one below which are nothing but lies and slander....This person who uses the name TheWatsonYouth claims to know me and to have worked in a sister group near me at IBM... He credits me with professional and financial success but states that my achievements were ill gotten...Most of my professional record is public and can be viewed via Google, I use my real name. Here is his latest post.:#1013066

......Shepard prospered during the era at IBM when anyone could succeed........nobody got fired............he was a political animal who leeched off the work of others...........when the shit finally hit the fan at IBM, he was among the first to get shit canned......his financial success at IBM spawned his arrogance.........believe me...deep down, he KNOWS he is an idiot.......I avoided him at IBM and avoid him here..........how people here have not learned to do likewise is simply beyond me.
I do not personally know this man and do not recall ever working with him. I do know he graduated from RPI with a BS in EE.... he lives nearby me in NY and has posted the exact location of my house. I don't know why he harbors such hatred but I do have a memory that I once interviewed such an individual who applied for a job with me....I rejected his application as being unqualified but he apparently received an offer from another IBM manager. Such lingering hatred in the workplace is not uncommon.
