Nope. And I don't intend to. Robin doesn't dispute the anything that happened in his cult 25 years ago, therefore, neither do I. That was then, this is now. Present-time Robin is all I know about or cared to address in my recent posts. I don't need to hang a lodestone of previous sins around his neck to interact with him on FFLife and those who do...well, they can write whatever they want and expect to be held to account as usual.
