At last, a cool head enters. Of course Jeff wouldn't lie on my behalf. Either a direct lie or an indirect innuendo. Anybody who knows Jeff knows that. The conspiracists just love conspiracies.

I don't think it would cause Jeff to lie. It might keep him from responding to such questions but I have no reason to suspect that he would post a lie based on some threat. Good point, Tim. Why would someone who was given the job to monitor these thread put himself or the site in the position of having posted a lie to protect any anonymous poster. Maybe I just don't get it but I thought that the purpose of these threads were to discuss issues and to anonymously speak our thoughts. It appears that too many personalities have bonded into cliques...a la junior high...and the focus has become supporting our "friends"(albeit cyber-friends) no matter what they do or say. Giving personal information over the internet is dangerous. We would instruct our kids about that fact, yet, it appears that some adults? have provided that information to others. Obviously, a dangerous move. We all should have friends,family,and if not jobs, at least hobbies that make this a small part of our day. Once it becomes someone's life,the chances of becoming a victim or a harasser is too probable. Marie
