I've been an respondent on the internet since 1999, so it's not like I'm
a newbie or something. And it's been my observation that Judy has a
really big ego, maybe bigger even than Barry, and that's saying a lot!
There are facts and there are opinions - facts can be argued, but an
opinion stands no matter what, and that's everyone's right to express -
you may not agree, but there should be no excuse for slandering your
debating opponents.
It's like when some people call others 'nazis' all the time - it soon
loses its force, and in the end doesn't do justice to the real nazi victims.
At first I thought Judy was being very astute when she called Barry a
liar over and over again; then she started going after me with the same
tactic. For awhile I thought there was something wrong with me and that
maybe I did lack integrity. But now, after Judy called Buck a liar for
no reason at all, I've come to the conclusion that Judy is simply a
well-poisoner.
That's her style I guess.
Hey, I'm all for truthfulness and personal integrity, but I'm just not
sure dialoging with anonymous informants in an online chat-room is the
place to prove it - this is supposed to fun, not a trial by a one-person
judge and jury.
But, it has reached a level now that she's calling almost everyone a
liar, a troll, and/or a poser.
At this point, she's just a very unpleasant person to deal with and not
very informative either. And, there's no relief when anyone starts up a
dialog with her - it's incessant and endless. Barry is a case in point -
from what I can tell, Judy carries a grudge for a very, very long time.
Go figure.
P.S. You may have noticed that Judy does NOT respond very elegantly to
constructive criticism. If anyone can point to an untruth I've posted,
please let me know and point my error - be specific, so we can resolve
any misunderstandings. Thanks in advance.

I think Truth is something huge, that cannot really be completely
conveyed in words alone. Unless the speaker or writer is communicating
from a very settled and integrated level of consciousness. OTOH,
unless someone has a nefarious intention, I think most people try to
communicate truthfully. But each of us is limited by our connection to
Truth. The most trustworthy people, imho, are those who recognize this
and intend to become more and more truthful.

Maybe, but I almost always suspect someone of not being totally honest
when they post as an anonymous informant. I used to post under various
handles until I got outed, and so I decided when I retired, I would
just use my real name. I've got nothing to hide and nobody can fire me
from my job since I'm self-employed now. But using a handle is no
biggie to me because I understand why some people need to keep their
privacy.
But, I did get a little paranoid reading Bill's post where he claimed
Ravi had stalked or threatened, to what - expose Bill and his wife.
What's up with that?
That's when things get REALLY nasty around here - I wouldn't blame
Rick if he shut down the whole discussion group, if that's what going
to happen here on a regular basis! It is always troubling to see
someone get banned from the group. Where I used to work, you had to
really screw up big time to get fired - like smoking pot in the
parking lot or something like that. Hardly anyone gets banned on FFL -
Kirk got banned for cursing too. Go figure.
And, I don't care if people post mean things about me sometimes - it
could always just be a joke of some kind - like when Barry2 posted
that my real name was Walter White. LoL!

We are not face-to-face on FFL, it's all words, words, words.
There are those here who make a big deal of their integrity.
Perhaps that is a suspect trait.
