In your post to Steve, you reported the "Caitlin" incident as if it were factual (although you backed off after I pointed out that we didn't have Robin's side of the story). > The book is there for all to read. It is your insinuations, > pure fantasy by you, that is dishonest. Oh, which "insinuations" were those, navashok? > It can't be a taboo talking about this, Of course not. Nowhere did I suggest it was. I was addressing your silly contention that you'd get into a "dog fight" if you mentioned any details. > and I am not bringing it up from my site, ("Side," not "site.")

If you are honest, you'll have to acknowledge that you have been doing precisely this since I called you on your psychiatric pseudo-diagnosis of Robin last December. (And I don't "insinuate" this, I say it right up front.) > And yes, I have no reason to believe that Bill Howell is not > saying the truth. You have no reason to believe he is telling the truth either, other than your antipathy toward Robin. > You may disagree, that's okay. Much more importantly, does Robin disagree? When he commented on the book, Robin was surprisingly generous toward Howell; he didn't accuse him of lying. He did say his own memory differed from Howell's in several factual respects (he didn't say what they were). But he also indicated he felt Howell's overall presentation, albeit sincere, was significantly skewed. I cited an amazing discussion between Ann and Robin in which Robin gave his perspective on it all. Of course, far be it from you to read that discussion for balance. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/326991 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/327053 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/327243 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/327546 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/327566 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/327058 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/327442 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/327572
