You know what's interesting, E? There , of course, is no "just between us". We have
never met, never even spoken on the phone. The facts we are discussing are all based
upon publicly-made posts, both here and on IHUB.


Well, if the "us" you're talking about is you and me, there were a number of emails and private messages. Not everything that has been said between us is or has been public. And I, for one, have kept what you wrote about in your emails completely private, as you asked me to. And even deleted certain things from public posts which you asked me to.

This is one of the most bizarre dramas i've seen played out on SI.

I thought "charged" with being a Christian minister was a bit off the wall, too, given that I believe he is a Quaker, and unless I'm mistaken, Quakers are Christians. Then I realized it was a way of gratuitously changing the subject from the fact that he claimed he was a minister to the specific denomination, or church-affiliation, of his ministerhood. But there's no point.

CH used to be a different person, you know. Really. He was nice. He was a decent human being. I wonder what happened.
