While I have not always agreed with Zeev, I insist he has a right to say it, & SI is not better off with him stricken from posting. I inquired of him as to why, and here is his reply. You be the judge and if you agree that at least he deserves to be contacted and querried, then perhaps a word of support to the Webmistress would help. Zeev said>>>> Jim: I do not think I run afoul of SI. It is very simple. As part of trying to find out who might have an interest in Light Therapies, my new venture, I have contacted a number of people on SI (just as I have contacted you). I limit these contacts only to people with whom I have "cyber-discussions". However, as part of a campaign to eradicate "naysayers" from the the RMIL thread, the "gang" leader there, G. Riley, has posted my E-mail missive publicly on the RMIL thread (I never sent him the message since I would not want to have him as an investor, I know not where he got it), I asked him to remove it and he refused, then I suggested to another poster that this post should be removed since I do not want to even have the appearance of publicly posting about the venture. He contacted the webmistress and apparently she informed him (she has yet to contact me and hear my side of the story) that I am violating SI rules. That is all that I know. I could understand her position if it was shown that I contacted people I have never had cyber-discussions with or on threads in which I am not active. But I limited my contacts to interlocutors and thread posters where I am active and where more than once people have mentioned that they appreciate my postings. Thank you for inquiring. A lot of people have e-mailed me to ask why I have stopped posting, but it is not in my hands. If you can change Jill's opinion, I would appreciate it, but it is certainly not a matter of life and death for me. I trully believe that the various thread where I have participated have benefited from my comments more than I have benefited from the occasional flamings (g). Thank you for pleading my case with the Webguardian. Have a happy and prosperous new year. Zeev
