I took your advice and had a look too.

Ophelia is the only name I recognise so she's obviously done a nym shift and
has escaped from my killfile but what she has to say is soooo revealing
about that group.

I was bang on the money about them being needy. As usual they are busily
deluding themselves too about how disruptive THIS group has been of Louis
Land. Amazingly dumb considering what has been seen here from the Louis
Land regulars, but typical of those thickwits.

Anyway, here's what Ophelia has to say in response to Sacha:

There's a thought. There is such disdain for this group and the
folks here, that one can only wonder (or not) why some folks deign
to post here. We have also seen the peace here disturbed once again.

I didn't say that! But I wonder how a nice gal like you can accept
Charlie's foul behaviour?
:-)

The people who get my back up are the ones who are mealy-mouthed on
other groups and behave nastily here. To me, it doesn't matter
where it's said, but what is said.

I hope that clears it up. :-)

That's what I thought you meant, Gordon. That I was not welcomed in both
groups. There are people on both groups, actually more than that, that post
everywhere.
If anyone feels the need to killfile me, that's fine with me, though. I will
miss some people, and not some others. Such is life.

You got it in one Bobbie. I was born in the Chicago area. And I learned to
drive in Chicago. That's why a little bad weather doesn't matter to me.
Although I would be proud to be a native Texan. I have met many a lady and
gentleman while I have been here. We have thought about retiring to South
Texas, but I understand then after a certain age we have to move to Florida.
I think it's a law somewhere. My aunts and uncles have now decided to winter
in Fl. and not south Texas. Dang it..I don't like the Eastern time zone, so
when the age police catch up to me, I'm NOT abiding by their time
zone....that'll teach 'em

Peaches may very well be very nice. Being nice is no guarantee against
paranoid behaviour.

The posts from you and from Gordon about the Louis Land nuttiness neither
mentioned her or said anything that could inply or infer criticism of her.
She put herself in the frame after both of your posts. There was no need at
all for her to do that.

Wouldn't that depends on the threat issued by Gin and the resolve of the
Louis Landers? Neutrality isn't necessarily respected in some
circumstances - just think of the sort of mob retaliations that have been
seen for suspected political 'sympathisers' in various world conflicts.

Not having seen what Gin has been saying, I have no idea about what
'sanctions' apply to known (or suspected) dual posters.
