Poet: sounds like his modus operandi ... ... to me. 'wstera' fancies himself to be some sort of 'vigilante enforcer,' seems to me. Fortunately, he's found his 'place' in life, evidently, on the Moderated Porch. So he would have no need to return here, is my thinking. Ain't that raaaght now, wsty? LOL. 'b-i-a' ###

Poet, I think it is a shame that you publicly misrepresent information we shared privately. I find that very disconcerting Poet. I don't find it out of character however. FWIW, the only threat in our PM's was from you to me IMO. As I said in our PM's about the non-existent threat; Feel free to get lawyers & go for it if you feel you have a case. I did nothing as you suggested & fear no reprisal in any way. I am completely satisfied there is no case to be made on your part. However, if you would like, perhaps we could send a copy of all the PM's in question to SI Bob. Let him read the alleged threat as claimed in the PM & have him arbitrate the matter. That seems fair to me, now that you have made your baseless claim a public matter. I do not know SI Bob other than the occasional post, but he seems to be fair minded & seems to have experience in disputes over who said what, or how, etc. Perhaps he could also read your words & determine that perhaps you made some form of threat at me as well? If he says I threatened you as per your claim, then you have all the fodder you will ever need. I will gladly apologize on this thread in a sincere manner. Vice versa, you make the apology on this thread. Perhaps we could make a mutual agreement..... if SI Bob makes a determination that a threat was made, the offending party agrees to a one week suspension from SI. One month? Perhaps two months? Less? More? What do you think? I'm game. What say ye? :-\| On the matter of making denigrating comments; I don't think personal attacks & denigrating comments are very civil discourse. I react harshly to that. Even more so when lies, misleading info & intentional deceit are woven into malicious, denigrating invective against another person. I just can't help it sometimes. Wrong is wrong & all that. However, I just don't understand how you, bonnie, rose & your porch peers can participate in &/or support such activities, let alone disagree with it in principle. What ever floats your boat Poet. I will stand up & fight it when I see it. It is my right to freely express my opinions & back them up with facts (IE, your own words). Ain't democracy great? Regards, Ö¿Ö
