I was not aware that it was Jack and that he was posting slander. He constantly posts all sorts of "stuff" on my board and we try to humor him but keep him in line. I think I answered his charges on my board in a fair manner. If you read what he writes, he is often clueless.... How many "contractors" do you know that get stock options? I know none. Also, how can a "market maker" work for a company? He is pretty much a loose cannon, but I think he has a right just as the KKK has the right to march down Main St. Posting slander is another issue that I don't understand all the laws enough. This link is my reply to his charges suite101.com I will be happy to add more to my reply if you feel I can do a better job of answering his charges without resorting to censorship. Maybe my feeling is different than yours on this issue of censorship? I can not accept censorship as it just leads to too many bad things. I feel it is better to answer the charges in a clam manner and expose the slanderous lies for what they are. I have tried to understand what Jack, and others like him, have against Bob Brinker. Through personal email, I believe they feel they were not listened to when they called the show or went to one (or several) of the SF receptions. Of course their expectations are out of line with reality, but it seems that maybe letting them air their gripes on the internet is a method to disperse their anger? Maybe I am just naive and some fans are just dangerous like in the movie "The Fan"?
