I endorse, nay demand, the resurrection of Cobaltblue. It is a matter of free speech, how can publication of the truth be an offense? It sounds like Nazi Germany.

Shoot if you must, this old grey head,
But spare Coby Blue, at least, he said.

After reading the messages from last night, I believe that the fact that jla had previously and several times posted his own personal information, plus the fact that no further PRIVATE info was given by COby, gives SI enough of a reason, an "out" if you will, to remove the termination. They no longer have need to CYA at the accusation of the infernal busybody. That coupled with jla's own statement that he doesn't care, ought to be enough. Can we make sure they have this information?? Are you or I going to send it on to SI Bob?

I found those posts of jla's, and then the denial of ever writing them, an eyeopener. THe level of viciousness in Feelings posting lately is alarming.
Some people (lawyers, maybe dear friend?) seem better equipped at handling this type of destructive and aggressive attack and are able to either respond in kind, even when it's against character (and I think this happened to Cobe)or by remaining removed emotionally (your gift). It's too bad there is no real way of dealing with the problems that led to this.
