"Since it is hard for me to believe that all fault is on his side,..." As I mentioned previously, my original reaction was "oh boy here we go again." This was during the period where there was an argument about whether Chris had wrongly accused Poet of being UnAmerican or something. It was related to his son's military status. Of course E and others got involved and it looked like one of those left group vs right group spats where each side would put a gang together and underhanded accusations would be bandied about to get the other side to over react, behave foolishly etc. then the discussion moves totally to behavior....yuck, yuck, yuck.... Who would I give blame to for the original falling out? I would give it to the SI community who play that game. Do I blame CH more than others? NO. However, it went far enough that Poet decided to take her ball and go home. The bullies on the field said, hell know we wont let you go. To which, she disengaged completely and announced several times that she no longer wanted any part of "it." CH took this as a personal rejection, which it also was. Still at this point I am not "blaming" CH for anything that everyone else couldn't take a share in. A "no to or about" was justifiably requested by Poet. Beyond that...ALL, every smudgen of fault in this issue is CH's. There are associated problems such as the "bandwagoning" however that belong to others. You already know all of this, btw.
