BTW, I note that you have not accepted the challenge to accept the same limitation wrt my posting.

I thought the answer that I'd already proved my ability to live with that limitation by living by it with another poster was sufficient. But...

What I did was comment to another person on an issue using quotes from one or two of Poet's posts (not attributed, so the identical thing she did over on IH).

CH, If you think pasting quotes from her posts and replying to them is an appropriate way to honor a to-or-about agreement, then I think I shall decline to have one with you.

Had my no-posting-to-or-about partner honored our arrangement in such a bizarre way, it would not have worked. If I had such an arrangement with you, and then pasted comments of yours, unattributed, and gave my opinion of them, so that you could not answer except by pasting comments of mine, unattributed, and replying to them, would that seem a good arrangement to you? It's ludicrous.

And I point out that that, disingenuous as it is, is only the beginning of your behavior to Poet. It hardly explains your showing up on her IHub thread, or the other posts to her you kept making on SI after you made them let you do it, even in the face of her repeated pleas to be left alone by you. Left alone.
