Brad,

The note from Jim H refers to one person as being the problem in the Fonar thread, and everyone there knows whom he's blaming. The note is an attack on her. The same fellow posted notes in this thread alluding to her in a perjorative way.

You posted that you had suspended both sides, but you left some of one side to continue to post negative remarks about one person, and you've set it so she can't respond.

In my view, she has been attacked constantly in that one thread, and I believe that the offending posts belong to her attackers.

Since Jim H has been reading this thread and the Fonar thread, his post in the Fonar thread is simply an excuse to knock one person.

You posted only yesterday in that thread that you'd suspended people for engaging in just such behavior, so I'd suggest it would be consistent that Jim be suspended for breaking the same rule.

I submit that ideas should be attackable but not people. I think that's a fairly clear concept and that he broke that rule by his post. He was calling names. My own post addressed what he did in that post, and did not personally attack him, nor call him names. Do you agree with that distinction?
