Hello John,

Since you have decided not to answer my question as part of a thread,
perhaps you would like to answer this as a separate issue?

I have had an interesting time researching you today. All is not as you
would like people to believe, is it?

Having had cause to question your competence and honesty regarding
comments you stated as “fact”, which have subsequently turned out to be
demonstrably untrue, I have come across this little gem which I have
reproduced here from ‘Accredited College Degrees by Correspondence’
(Library of Congress Catalog card Number 93-74226, ISBN 1-884552-151-X )

Greenwich University

‘Beware this school. We believe it to be more insidious than a degree
mill. They keep themselves borderline legal, but are known to be
grossly deceptive. The owner of the school, Dr John Bear (not an M.D.)
publishes a guide to non-traditional colleges that fraudulently list
his newly started school as one of the top three percent of all such
colleges in the country. Meanwhile, last year’s version of his own
guide did not even acknowledge the existence of his fake ‘top school.’

Our research has discovered that Greenwich is really a newly-formed mom-
and-pop operation running in Hawaii. The school is not approved or
accredited by any organization, including the Department of Education
in Hawaii, and is essentially operating with only a $15 Hawaiian
business license.

By listing his own school as one of the best in his guide, Dr Bear
confirms suspicions that his phoney guide to non-traditional schools is
really a cleverly disguised brochure to sell admissions to his newly-
created school. Along with deceiving readers into thinking that his
guide is legitimate, credible list of carefully researched schools,
Bear’s guide also viciously discredits a number of fine schools which
compete with his Greenwich school.

By adopting these tactics, the management of Greenwich proves itself to
be unethical and disreputable. Save your money and look for a more
legitimate school.’

I have reproduced this WITHOUT seeking the permission of the author
(although I doubt he will mind). Which brings me to a point. I have
noticed on this forum that you and your ‘associates’ frequently cut and
paste information from copyrighted websites. Have you sought permission
to do so or are you guilty of copyright infringement?

Dr Bear, is the report about your involvement with Greenwich University
true, either as yourself or as an alias?

Dr Bear, if it is not true, have you sued for defamation of character
or libel?

Dr Bear, if you have not sued the author of this published work, why
not?
