To Mike Devour: I am afraid you are mistaken, I have not "assaulted" anyone by email, I have replied to an unsolicited private email in an appropriate defensive way to make the clear statement 'stay away for good', this to a person who is suddenly emailing me off list and attacking me for raising the red flag against her/him for breaking the off topic posting rules and setting the record straight against glorifying a socalled spiritual leader who has SEXUALLY MOLESTED several of my friends! I have no problem playing bad cop here to make the point that many are sick and tired of receiving such off-topic postings.
