<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Dear Mr./Ms. SM,<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I agree. Talk here has been aggressively juvenile and vindictive at times. Some</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>have had a total disregard for easily verifiable fact. And some just make stuff</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>up. That's the nature of free speech and open debate. But avoiding people</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>because you disagree with them is a mistake. Unless you like sycophants.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>You arrived here on May 31, Mr./Ms. SM. Without giving us the most basic</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>of common courtesy -- your name. You've written fifteen articles here. I've </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>counted them. You've posted four hyperlinks. All of them in support of a</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>teacher without a teaching credential. I counted them too. You've called</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>four people out by name in your subject lines. But never given yours. Not</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>even once. I counted that too.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>The talk became aggressively juvenile and vindictive on May 31. The same</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>day you showed up. As an apologist for Stuart Campbell. The teacher without</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>a teaching credential. Who became vice president here in a rigged election.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Who has a total disregard for easily verifiable fact. And just makes stuff up.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Like you do.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>So go ahead and check out, Mr./Ms. SM. It doesn't really matter. Because </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>you never really checked in. You're a troll, Mr./Ms. SM. You'll be missed like</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>syphilis here. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Sincerely,</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Scott M.

Some time ago in the back of a Board of Directors meeting
during a break you told me that I should subscribe to this listserv
because there was polite and intelligent discussion by people concerned
about the future of community radio. I finally checked in a few days ago
and found that the discussion must have deteriorated. Talk here has been
aggressively juvenile, vindictive, and some have a total disregard for
easily verifiable fact and just make stuff up. You, on the other hand,
are intelligent and polite but, I think, very misguided. We disagree.
Big deal.
So, I am going to check out and not come back. I will tell the owner of
the e-mail service I used to hose it out with prejudice, or compost it.
I recommend that you avoid associating with some of the walking wounded
here because it is unhealthy to do so. SM</pre><pre style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></pre><pre style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></pre><pre style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></pre></div></div>                                            </div></body>
