That is simply not true, for me anyway. I
have been on internet discussion groups
from the beginning. Do a google search and many of the things I said and thought back in '96 are right there to be read. The only
reason my name doesn't appear here is to keep from
spreading more google fodder. Anyone who wants to know who I am can send me an email off digest and I will gladly respond. Hiding behind the anonymity of the internet is one thing, dragging down logical, thought out, and pertinent discussions with mindless BS, personal attacks and senseless rants is another.

the forum's "purpose" may be; I think the product reflects the contribution, seems to me there are two universes represented here. Those having the courage to stand behind their statements and positions by identifying who they are, and the gutless, hiding behind various sobriquets having little or no connection to their individual identity. Stage set for an unequal game and playing field, the cowards, or black team, have license to state any gossip, slur or falsehood against the brave white team, resulting in falsehood mimicking statement and bias posing as fact.

Using aliases, comes with the territory of cowardice, may offers
the black team the upper hand. I was taught Freedom of speech is a basic right.
I did not think that the First Amendment protected cyber bandits
who indulges in falsehood and slander. I'm glad the authorities
read the postings supplied them. Our sources did their part
to even playing field.
Hopefully, in time, not holding my breath, one or
two of the black team members names could become public record. Told
at first it was a civil matter, then somebody persevered.
I was told it will take along time. Not sure how much money it
will cost to pursue this. Sometimes you have put your money where your
mouth is. On the other hand, it may cost the cyber bandits their own money to
defend themselves.
