I withdraw my apology.

Kirk said to math: "That is a good suggestion to use dates of posts, but I don't feel compelled to dance every time someone like you or dija or queen says "Kirk might be lying." I think we've shown you only do it to waste time or harass us." I don't believe I have ever said that. Talk about "making things up". I'm sure I have said I don't trust undocumented evidence, no matter where it comes from, especially when it contains slander and animosity, and I will continue to say so. But that was said on another subject and I'm not sure what your point is for dragging me into this one. And I have never posted anything just to harass you. Some of you claim to just want to post the truth to save humanity from evil, but you can't or won't accept that anyone on the other side may be here with positive motivations regarding truth as well. I think it was math that posted something about the dangers of self-righteousness. It was excellent advice, whoever said it, and may it be taken to heart. You apparently don't have the grace to accept a genuine apology without exaggerating out of all proportion, and exploiting it to puff your own self-interest. And BTW, what is wrong with posting the "proof" if you have it, rather than posting links or dates and time stamps?

"BTW, how is posting a 'time stamp' going to prove anything?" Neither the date nor the time would prove anything by themselves. The date alone would be sufficient for a reader to locate a publicly accessible post on your Brinker thread. The time stamps would merely be a convenience in saving the reader a little time. "Unless I offer a notarized document with signatures, you could claim I made up emails or even letters so I sure as heck am not going to give up people's privacy just for you every time you or some other serial harasser 'doubts' what we say simply because you don't like the facts." I mentioned the date and time as an alternative to posting links to publicly accessible posts on your site, not in relation to confidential or private communications. I have used this method myself at times when the Yahoo censorbot was not allowing links to your site. It was only a suggestion.
