The spin, I fear, is all in your head, Stevie-boy. I think I'll put up some 
excerpts to show those who never saw or don't remember the exchange how idiotic 
it is to think we were trying to fool people.
 

 I'm sorry you are so humiliated by having taken it all seriously when most 
people got that it was all in fun, but you really, really cannot blame your own 
failing in that regard on Robin and me.
 

 While I'm at it, please cite examples you believe undermine my claims of 
honesty. If I do it "on a regular basis," that shouldn't be hard.
 

 Also cite examples of where I have fallen for misrepresentations that you 
spotted at the outset.
 

 (I'm asking pro forma, because I know you won't and can't.)
 

 That, lovely lady, is what we call in the trade a "spin".  So aside from the 
persistent claims of your unflinching honesty and truthfulness, you are 
undermining it here, as you are wont to do on a regular basis.
 

 And then, (an this really is hilarious), you attempt to put the blame on ME, 
as to whether or not I did fall for your ploy.  And yes, I did initially give 
it credibility, as I don't typically assume people are trying to fool me.
 

 And just as I have seen you fall for misrepresentations that I spotted at the 
outset.
 

 Bottom line: You've got some serious re-evaluation to do on you persistent 
honesty claim.
 

 We'll wait........

 Boy, have you missed the boat. If we had intended to "fool people," we would 
have done the whole thing entirely differently. The fun was in putting on an 
act, an over-the-top role-playing improvisation, for others to enjoy--which 
most people did. Only a few real knuckleheads were unable to recognize it for 
what it was. Nobody with any sense could have taken it seriously.
 

 Oh, hmmm, you took it seriously at first, didn't you? Well, like I said... 
 

 Really, the strange thing for me, is that both Judy and Robin consider this 
the best time they had posting on FFL, or at least near the top.  Judy said as 
much a few days ago.  Now what does that say about a person, or persons that 
creating a parody just to see how many people they can fool is what they 
consider great sport?
 

 But maybe the real kicker is that if you accuse Judy and Robin of setting 
traps for people, you will hear Judy recite chapter and verse (for the 
umpteenth time) of what an honest person she is.  
 

 That's a "go figure" if ever there was one.

 Most of Robin's writings appear to be parodies or total fibs. So far as I can 
tell, Robin never repudiated his parody of Judy. But, according to Judy and 
Ann, Robin told them in private email that it was a joke on the rest of us. If 
that's true, then nobody on FFL will ever believe anything Robin ever wrote or 
says again. And, now that we know that Robin, Ann, and Judy are playing tricks 
on us pricks, will we never again believe anything they say on FFL. 
 
 "I am surprised though, Judy, you would reveal this information about my prior 
association with you before I started posting at FFL. But I will take this as 
your need to express your hurt that I should turn on you like this. Still, I 
think it was imprudent of you to do this. But the damage is done, and we must 
live with it."
