I was not aware this place had a leader. Groups like FFL are just dumping grounds for what is in people's minds. One dumps and then the others, usually not all, sort through your trash and either ignore, praise or revile, and then the cycle repeats until one loses interest or dies or has some kind of mental embolism forcing an exit. Various clumping alliances tend to occur in the various minds such as 'Barry's Thugs' and 'Judy's Minions' depending on which ideas and the way they are expressed seem most interesting at the time.
What is so important about one's posts that one has to 'stand by them'? If anything we would hope that henceforth we will somehow be a bit more wise, and what we did previously represented a time when we were stupider, less insightful, less experienced, so burying the past rather than fixating on it as some kind of shrine to our own glory would be a better choice. No one is ever so perfect that improvement cannot be imagined and then implemented. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <authfriend@...> wrote : OK, that's it, I've said most of what I wanted to say. If anyone responds to any of these posts, my follow-up is: "I stand by what I wrote." Anything Barry or aryavazhi adds will most likely involve deliberate misrepresentations, so take that into account. Others of Barry's thugs may decide to emulate their Dear Leader in the hope of receiving his strokes. Now I'm going to go take a long hot bath to wash off the corruption. Phew. Bye.
