Anyone who follows Goanet regularly would know that I have agreed and disagreed with both Elisabeth and Nasci, and we respectfully agree to disagree as civilised adults should. > Goanetters will be amused at the notion that I need to ask for moral support from anyone, after often seeing me single-handedly take on a whole cabal of attackers leading to the appearance of excessive posts, whereas these were individual responses on the same subject by a host of others. > Gabe is correct that I have a problem with a specific cabal of posters, whose names may or may not include those Gabe has mentioned.
