Hi Randy,
I am unsure if your post was directed towards me. "canard : a false or
baseless, usually derogatory story, report, or rumor"

My statement is in no way false or baseless. The "piling on" in this
thread is a very distasteful disply of the worst of human nature and
is only amplified,in my opinion, by the fact that chess is supposed to
involve those of highest intellect and moral fiber.( Or at least that
is what people who are involved in the USCF would like one to believe)

Granted it is only a hand full of internet posters spewing this
vitriol. So I confine my judgement for now to that group alone.
