Perhaps you should not think of the location where some tragedy takes
place, but rather the people that caused it. Yes, I quite agree with you
as I have lived in Brookdale for over 17 years now. However, no place is
immune to problems...excepting natural disasters it is the people who choose
the place where the crime or catastrophic event shall take place...not
the lo-cal or neighborhood!

Yup. Lompico gets a bad rap because it's so dark in the
canyon, there *have* been a few incidents, etc., but things
happen elsewhere, too.
There was a cult in Ben Lomond a few years back. North of
Boulder Creek, near the Mountain Store, locals have reported
animal mutilations for the past few years. It just goes
with the territory that there are a few *whacks* out there,
but we notice it more often when things happen here as
opposed to daily murders in a large metropolis.

On the same note I believe it wasn't too long ago that Santa Cruz County was the "Axe
Murder" capitol of the country on a number in the county basis. I'm not sure why I
capitalized that but I don't have italics. The axe murder designation refered to the
type as in a weird murder as opposed to the more normal hold up shoot `em type. Aren't
we glad that there's a normal form of murder. :-)
Enough already.

Right after the '89 quake, I recall an interesting conversation
with two county workers who came around to take a head count of
mountain folk. After talking with me briefly, the lead guy said
something along the lines of:
"Incidentally, if you know of anyone back here who really
doesn't want to be disturbed, then we don't want to bother them".
"Hmmm!! Oh, you mean someone like say an herb farmer who might
be touchy about having their garden disturbed ? " I asked.
"Yes exactly!!" he replied. "We want people to know that the
disaster agencies really REALLY respect people's privacy,
and REALLY don't want to know what people might be growing."
I explained that I personally was a computer guy possessing no automatic
weapons, and that the last known horticulturalists had to move away
suddenly a few years earlier. With that, we went our separate ways.

Attached are two stories from the Murk:
Pair found fatally shot in mansion
Mercury News Staff Report
The bodies of a woman and man -- both shot -- were found Friday in
a Brookdale mansion, victims of an apparent murder-suicide, Santa
Cruz County sheriff's deputies said.
Investigators said they believe Jonathan Denison Marsh, 42, shot and
killed the woman late Thursday or early Friday before turning the gun
on himself, said Sgt. Richard Ross.
The woman was tentatively identified by police as Katherine Lynn
Novelle, 42, who died after being shot twice. Marsh died from a single
gunshot wound.
It was not immediately clear from authorities what their relationship
was. But Ross said Marsh lived at the approximately 22,000-square-foot
home.
Deputies would not comment on the motive or what evidence led them to
believe the shooting was a murder-suicide.
The bodies were found by a house painter, who notified police at 1:49 p.m.
They were inside the servants' quarters of the mansion, known as Blake
Hammond Manor, Ross said.
The Highway 9 chateau was once a school for developmentally disabled
children, the sheriff's office said.
AND
Friends speculate on murder-suicide motive
By John Woolfolk
Mercury News Staff Writer
Money troubles and unrequited love were among the reasons suggested
Monday by friends and relatives of a couple who died in an apparent
murder-suicide last week at a mansion in the Santa Cruz mountains.
Jonathan Denison Marsh and his girlfriend, Katharine Lynn Nowell
Bunting, both 42, were found dead Friday in the servants quarters of
the former Blake Hammond Manor in Ben Lomond.
Nowell Bunting had been shot twice in the chest and Marsh once in the
chest, said Santa Cruz County sheriff's Sgt. Richard Ross.
Sheriff's investigators believe Marsh, who rented a room at the manor,
shot Bunting sometime late Thursday or early Friday, then turned the gun
on himself, Ross said. They are still looking for a motive.
The couple were found at 1:50 p.m. Friday by a painter, Phillip Watts,
and Pat Wilder, co-owner of the manor, a former school for the disabled
which they call by its original name, Riverwood Castle. The couple were
lying on their backs together on the floor, and the door was a few inches
ajar, Wilder said.
``They were peaceful-looking, like they were sleeping,'' Wilder said.
When the painter tried to wake them, they were stiff, Wilder said. They
then noticed Marsh's .38-caliber revolver lying a foot from Marsh's
right hand and called police, she said.
There was a bullet hole in the window, but the bed was neatly made and
there were no signs of struggle, Wilder said. Her ex-husband, Roger, was
in another room watching television at the time and did not notice
anything, she said.
Wilder described Marsh, a contractor who had been living at the manor
since November, as a talented man who enjoyed building and working with
computers. But she said he may have had money troubles.
``One day, he told me he was very stressed out,'' Wilder said. ``I think
he was struggling. He had some real financial reverses, and I felt that
had a lot to do with what happened.''
At the Denny's in Scotts Valley where Nowell Bunting worked as a waitress,
co-workers said she had been resisting Marsh's romantic advances. The two
were former neighbors in the Live Oak area near Santa Cruz where Marsh
used to live with his mother, and she had been helping him on construction
jobs. Police said the two ate dinner together the night they died and had
dated a few times.
``He was moving in way too fast,'' said Joanne Robertson, a waitress at
Denny's, where co-workers have set up a collection bucket for Bunting's
two school-age children. ``I think she just wanted to be his friend. But
he wanted more of a relationship than a friendship.''
Nowell Bunting's husband, Denis Bunting, from whom she had been separated,
declined comment.
Robertson described her slain co-worker as a devoted mother with an
artistic gift: She would often sketch customers on a napkin and give the
drawing to them.
``We don't think Kate would have done that to herself,'' Robertson said.
``She wasn't that kind of person. Kate was a very good mother. She would
not run off and leave her kids at home.''
Marsh's mother, Dory Marsh, said her son was not romantically interested
in Nowell Bunting because of her children.
``He didn't want to get involved with her for that reason,'' Marsh said.
Her son had been buying equipment to expand his business and appeared to
have several jobs lined up, she said. He bought the gun two weeks ago,
she said, to protect himself while he looked for property to build a cabin
in the mountains.

Nowell was one of her last names.

Last time around on this never-ending thread, someone suggested a FAQ
be put together on the subject. Since my main form of entertainment
these days seems to be reading Usenet and getting annoyed, I've tossed
together some questions for a proposed FAQ. Feel free to pipe in with
other questions or answers to the questions.
Proposed FAQ questions:
What started all this?
Whose fault is it, anyway?
How many people are really involved?
Who is an alias for whom?
Who reads these messages?
What's the deal with the restraining order?
Can we revoke the restraining order, or extend it to Usenet?
How old are these people, anyway?
Are there any good killfile scripts pertaining to these threads?

Obviously, the answer to this question is Dean and Kim. It takes two to

The accounts I post from at this site to the scruz newsgroups
are "jrd" and "system" -- other admin aliases at this site
are used for BBS duties, mailing list maintenance, and so on.
That's it. It's not unusual for admins to have several
accounts for various tasks.
I'm not surprised at Mr. Bill behaving this way. He's had
an axe to grind since his girlfriend flamed me and I told
her to shut up. She was deliberately resurrecting a very
unpopular, nearly-extinct thread just for kicks. Funny,
isn't it, that Mr. Bill never said anything about her antics,
nor dropped her into his kill file, and likewise that, until
now, he has not chastised Taxi/Eric for *starting* flame
threads? (I guess he felt Eric had finally pushed it all too
damn far. It appears they "run" in the same circles, but
in the end even this could not save Taxi from the wrath
of Mr. Bill.)
I can understand the frustration that folks may have with
this crap, but imagine how I feel being at the center of it.
Nice reminder: *I* didn't start this. See the FAQ.
BTW -- is Mr. Bill still flaming non-local poets in scruz.
poetry? I plonked him in my kill file over there. Talk
about tedious...
God, Scary things those banjos are... the metal rims on those things are

I appreciate your efforts, Dean.
But since it's a FAQ, it ought to also have the "other story" as well,
no? And perhaps should be put together by a non-interested third
party?
This way, it can be reposted to the local groups every so often, or
better yet, made available via the Web, and then anyone who wants to
visit or revisit the scene of the crime can do so at their leisure.
And you and the other parties no longer need to snipe at each other
publicly, other than to refer each other to the FAQ ("May I suggest
that someone-who-shall-remain-nameless-but-obviously-refers-to-

I'm glad that you think my baby is such an interesting little guy, Brian.
You will have also noticed that I don't discuss the nature and frequency of
his bowel movements on the scruz.* newsgroups. I also don't discuss the
quantity of clothing I launder each week or the difficulties of removing
certain stubborn stains.
In other words, I have been on Usenet long enough to realize that it's
in poor taste to air one's dirty linen here.
But, y'know, other folks have been on Usenet a long time, too, and some of
them seem to feel that it is THE place to air dirty laundry. Maybe I've been
wrong all these years and stale dirty laundry is what Usenet readers are
clamoring for.

Fair enough. However, who will you find who knows enough
about it and is willing to dig through the stories, sort
the swine from swine (using perl, no doubt), etc.? Most
people are either uninterested, miffed, or biased in
favor of one side or the other.
I'd be happy to put that on the file server here, too.
Are you volunteering? (I don't mind if it'somewhat tongue-
in-cheek, as the current filled-in examples have been.)
The web page idea has been discussed. However, well, there
are some related issues with that.

... and Max. He was the first boyfriend Kim had
immediately after Kim and I split. He's the twit
who stalked and attacked me. Eric, to his credit,
has not attacked me. He's not entirely bright,
but he's not completely psychotic, either.
Interesting note... Eric and Max are buddies, and
as has been true with her past lovers (but not
with me, I was sort of the fluke, the "odd man
out"), Kim was passed along from Max to Eric.
This is why their assertion that Eric did not
know who I was when he first contacted me is so
ludicrous. I know Max's idea of fun, and I cannot
believe that he did not tell stories and jokes
about me.

look at news headers very carefully. I'm sure
many of the regulars were able to see that the
message came from none of my regular posting
locations. More I will not say to preserve the
anonymity of "Orlando."
A couple of hackers who wish me ill have met up with
Bach and friends via Usenet and e-mail to lend
support, but I suspect Eric and Kim now think this
was a bad idea. (These hackers are not particularly
trustworthy.)

Let's be honest, here. More of you read the messages

Not premature. Long overdue. It hasn't made
any difference, though, in the long run.
Restraining orders often do little good unless
there was virtually no problem to begin with.
Cops have admitted to me that restraining orders
are basically the paper trail leading from the
suspect(s) back to your bloody corpse after
something happens.

Actually, I do suspect you have some rather
interesting dirty laundry. Still, I could
give you a good run for your money with the
stuff I *haven't* told, the stuff Kim is
praying I find just as embarrassing as she

Odd, isn't it, that Harrison Page, despite following
me around to various newsgroups and harassing me for
the past two years, claiming how much he hates me,
etc., continues to read all of my posts? Why am I
still not in his own kill file?
Page and his buddies have also, you'll notice,
insisted on using my real name rather than my
penname, thus nixing my wish to keep my business
and my online Usenet life separate. I rarely post
under my real name, and most folks know me as
J.R. Dean, and many call me J.R. in person.
One exception to my penname rule, where I *do*
post under my real name, is when I'm reporting
Net abuse like forged news articles, e-mail bombings,
and site breakins (halcyon.com being the last site
they hacked) perpetrated by Page and his buddies.
BTW, I can't recall the last time I posted to Usenet
news from the Armory. Do a search on that account
from Deja News and you'll see I'm correct.

Wrong. The last three accounts are not mine. Also,
Cerastes now posts mostly from AOL under another
account name. Colin, aka assassin, rarely logs in
here and does not post from here; Colin was never
much of a Usenet person.
Peter, aka spidey, has not logged in here in ages.
He has an account on the Armory and posts occasionally
from there. I believe he may also have an account at
UCSC. He posted from this site only once or twice,
anyway.
Fortunately, these people have other options for
posting news and sending mail than just nocturne.
Basically, in an attempt to shut down this site,
Page accuses anyone posting to Usenet news from
this site of being me. This has, of course, made
it very popular to post from this site. Right.
Harrison is one of the "hackers" I spoke of in
a previous post. Since he hates me so much, it
was inevitable that he'd find and trade info with
Taxi and Kat91. Page's antipathy towards me and
this site relates to bogus accounts and attempted
breakins at this site by him and his buddies. They
can't stand the fact that they were caught in the
act.
Search Deja News for spidey, cerastes, and
assassin to confirm what I'm saying. After
Harrison and his buddies accused these users
of being me they decided it wasn't worth it
to post from this site. Also search the
Deja News website news archives for Page's
various posts, and those of his buddy MC2
(the plague of alt.tasteless). These guys
think they're oh so amusing, but hardly any-
one else does. MC2 has even inspired his
own "alt.fan" newsgroup.

Glen Appleby gl...@cruzio.com http://www2.cruzio.com/~glena/
Mel,
Thank you and others for your efforts at mitigating this in a fair non-biased
way. However, I (not sure about Kim) do not believe that this can be done in
an equitable manner here. Therefore, dean may spew forth his false
allegations, conspiracy theories, and self-gratifying digs to his hearts
content. I have no desire to "tell my side of the story" other than to state
plainly that I will respond to the hidden gems in his baiting flame posts
whenever I choose to. How anyone can tolerate this taunting, stalking creep
is beyond me.
His modus operandi is always the same, boring really. I will post an article
on divers topics such as the recent murder/suicide in Brookdale, and sure as
the sun shines, mister piggy comes along (to let me know he's there) and
appears to contribute to the discussion, although his curious fascination
with the Deliverance jokes MUST give one pause. Then, by his own admission
he "baits the hook" with a snide little reference to me which is just too
invidious to ignore. He then quickly throws up some BS about his "knowing"
the woman who was killed backpedaling after realizing that he got her name
wrong. He also includes some snippets from the Mercury, which everyone has
already seen, to give the impression that he is genuinely contributing to the
thread. After I reply to his baiting post, he(fictitious person?) or someone
else whose identity is "anonymous" takes his side in the argument. When
other users who are sick of these flame wars get involved, dean volunteers to
write the FAQ!!! How cunningly convenient!! No, my side of the story will be
told in a court of law, if it must come to that.
For what it's worth, I have already apologized to dean publicly for the
original flame post I sent to him over a year ago. At the time I did not
realize his connection to Kim and you can take it or leave it but it's the
truth. If I remember correctly, I (and many others) were tired of having to
sort through his mountains of advertising garbage for his mailing lists.
Mercifully he has ended that practice. Despite my open apology to him and
everyone else who may have seen it, dean very gruffly refused. He then made
it a point to follow me in the newsgroups wherever I go, waiting for just the
right moment to bait me into responding to him. It does not matter what I
post, there is ALWAYS a response from him, he even sees fit to flame my for
sale postings! To me that is barefaced harassment and I want it to S T O P
right now.
I think that extending the restraining order to cover USENET might just be
feasible. I am not interested in the FAQ. Or preferably, lets just forget the
whole thing ever happened and go our merry ways but now realizing where the
other persons nose begins. I must admit that dean has posted useful
information at times on topics that are interesting to me and I have no
problem in his responding to my posts as long as they are devoid of the
flambe material which is really just directed towards Kim. I guess I am just
a victim by proxy. Ho hum……
Sincerely,
E. E. Fehrenbach

A cheerful farewell to anyone who decides to nix my posts. If you don't
want to hear from me, I'm happy you have this option.
So, to sum it up .... I said I wasn't going to post in response to Dean.
I have added that I won't contribute to a FAQ in response to him. I won't
particpate in any alt.dean.vs.eric.and.kim newsgroup, either. Or mailing
lists. Or print media. Or teleconferences. Or press conferences. No
chats on IRC or ICB. No duels at dawn or breast-beating at noon. I'll
refuse requests for interviews from the National Enquirer. If Oprah or
Ricki Lake or Dan-the-Man Rather asks me to come on down and chat about
Dean, I'll say no. No response means no response. I hope that covers it
all, because not only do I not want to respond to Dean, I don't want to
discuss him with anyone else or waste my time and everyone else's with
further posts explaining my policy of non-response!
In hopes this is the last time I have to post on this subject,
Kim Bach
Please take this inane discourse to some other forum.
Thanks,
Paul

Well, *I* didn't see the articles. I don't get the
Mercury News, and I read the Sentinel only infre-
quently, maybe once or twice a week. I was grateful
that Jane posted those articles to "The Grimoire"
in response to my query.
I found this bit from Fehrenbach particularly in-
sulting. Accusing me of using a couple of dead
people in a scheme to get at *him* and Kim is just
too much.
I've posted a rebuttal to Bach and Fehrenbach's

She might still be reading the flames from her account

Of course she is. Didn't you notice, Glen?
Mel's FAQ, though, will be based not on fact but on rumor, humor and innuendo.
A serious FAQ on this subject would take all of the fun out of it.
A bit like Dave Mankin's Frequently Questioned Answers. The FQA is posted
on home-ed whenever the Phonics -vs- Look/Say reading flame war erupts.
It devotes almost equal time to poking fun at all of the players in home-ed's
repetitive flame wars. It has the remarkable effect of short-circuiting some
of the more absurd flame wars.
(To Mel) You go, grrrrl.

Steve asked a question, so I answered him.
I do apologize, Paul. I hope my e-mail helps to

No, it is Just That Easy. Some of your "users" only seem to post
when you're in a flame war with somebody. In fact, you've been
known to spell the same words wrong between accounts. Did you know
that?

That's the Dean I know and love: veiled threats, smear tactics, and
outright lies. What on earth is "Peter" going to "do" to me? Call
me names? Put me in one of those crazy headlocks you love bragging
about?
If you want to stalk me, I can send you a pamphlet.

Wow. So, I guess that means I make the same typos
on my jrd, adrian, and system accounts? Duh.
One of the most commonly misused words I've seen
in posted articles is "your" in place of "you're,"
the contraction for "you are." Since this is so
prevalent, and, keeping in mind Harrison's neat
rule about misspellings in articles... this of
course means that Taxi and one of Harrison's hacker
buddies are one and the same, they somehow have the
time to post from hundreds of accounts around the
world, and in fact this *one person* accounts for
about 15% of all Usenet postings. <snicker>
Wow... I'm humbled before your superior logic.
Naturally, you're not about to share any of this
"evidence" with us, no no.
Orlando mailed me saying you'd said hello to me
at Orlando's bayarea.net account. I didn't get
a blow-by-blow reading of that post, but am I
to understand that you think even Orlando is
me, too? Have you ever heard of the Deja News
search service? You can look up old news articles.
Orlando has not, to my knowledge, posted to
ba.mountain-folk from that alias before this
recent post, but Orlando has certainly been
posting from bayarea.net for several months.
I'd really like to know how I'm supposed to have
found the time to post from so many accounts as
you claim, held down jobs, plus gone to the
waste of paying for yet another account with
yet another ISP? Really, I'd like to know how
it's possible to do this so I can find more time
in my busy life to do all of the things that need
to be done.
God, what a moron.

Peter is not a violent person. You've wrongly
accused him of being *me*, you big idiot, and
it's pretty obvious that Peter thinks you're
a big idiot, too. No, I was thinking more
along the lines of Peter and some of his friends
flaming you from two sides at once... you know,
using that tactic of which *you* are so found?
> If you want to stalk me, I can send you a pamphlet.

That's nice. So you've got online stalking down to
a science, have you? I thought as much...
Did you include a section in your pamphlet about
forging news articles and e-mail, breaking into commercial
sites, forging web search info in other people's names,
and using simple sounds card to alter your voice to
obscure your identity in crank phone calls?
You amateur... you and your "hacker" buddies leave
a trail a mile wide. Did you know that?
It's only a matter of time before your stunts land
you and your buddies in jail.

Why don't you grep through your little archives for the word "scorpian"?
You have managed to spell this word wrong constantly between your fake
accounts.

The FQA was Mel's project and her brother had nothing to do with it.
(Nor, he assures me, does he have anything to do with the inception of
Zeebo.)
However, I sent Mel some email on Monday and haven't heard a thing since.
This leads me to suspect that the overdue Zeebo has finally decided to make
an appearance.
Mel is perhaps a little busy at the moment.

Well, almost. scruz.ucsc.edu seems to be having
news delivery problems. UUCP sites connected to
scruz are seeing lots of error messages after
news batchs are delivered to scruz. It's been
pretty usual the past couple of weeks for posts
from nocturne to be delayed by a day or two to
sites like cruzio. You'll see my reply soon
enough.

"Scorpian?" It's spelled with an "o." I don't recall
posting about scorpions in more than one post, so I
doubt if I posted more than one sentence on the subject.
Wow, you must have grepped *real hard* to find that
one word, huh? Yeah, right. That's pretty ancient.
Convenient, isn't it, that this thread you've mentioned
is so old that it's no longer archived at Deja News?

Jeff Liebermann investigated the problem and found
that since I'd sent the news batch through cichlid
it was unavoidably delayed when PG&E service was
interrupted. So, that part of the mystery is solved.
Thanks to Jeff for looking into this.
However, the batches through cichlid are redundant;
my primary scruz.* news connection is still through
scruz.ucsc.edu. When I noticed delays, I added the
duplicates to the cichlid feed as backup. The messages
through scruz never appeared, but those would have been
dropped on the floor because of the batch previously
delivered by cichlid, anyway, which is exactly what
*should* happen.
Still don't know the cause of the scruz delay... Jeff
is on the case....

Wrong. darkstar.ucsc.edu, also known as the UCSC news server
is over subscribed with far too many NNTP connections. Although
scruz.ucsc.edu is 3 feet from darkstar, it can't compete with
all the other machines and gives up with a connect error message.
scruz.ucsc.edu does NOT run news software or spool news locally.
Instead it transfers the scruz.* newsgroup news via tcp/ip
directly when you poll the system. If you happen to call when
darkstar is busy, scruz fails to grab the news, and you get an
error message. Nothing outgoing is lost because nothing has
happened (exept a connect failure). Incomeing news is spooled
on scruz.ucsc.edu until a connection to darkstar is available.
Methinks the retry time is about 10 minutes. Try to ignore the
error messages.
: It's been
: pretty usual the past couple of weeks for posts
: from nocturne to be delayed by a day or two to

The sample message you sent me was delayed 2 days because
your news posting did not go via scruz.ucsc.edu. It went
via cichlid.com which was down all day thurday because of lack
of power due to the storm. Cichlid only has a 28.8 connection
to scruz.net but gets almost a full newsfeed. If it goes down
for one day, it takes several days to catch up. Your posting
appeared on comix this morning at about 9am. Not great, but
tolerable.
I'm not sure what to do about the error messages. I can
make them go away with something like:
whatever 2> /dev/null
but that will eat all error messages. I can ignore it because
scruz.ucsc.edu will be going away some time in June (John, Jon,
and Jeff are current working on a replacement). Dunno...

Well, certainly, Jeff, if one wishes to be nit-picky about
the actually connection setup. Yes, I knew that scruz
does *not* run news software. I can tell that much
from some of the error messages over the years.
For a site sending news through scruz, however, it's
not so incorrect to say that there's a "problem" at
scruz with news delivery if it passes batches to darkstar
and on to the greater outback. The batch never got
to darkstar, ergo it was not delivered. I didn't specify
the actual mechanism for that failure.
Your ministrations and counsel are appreciated, though,
and the help of the others, as well (Jon, John, et al).
This tangent of that other thread began as an answer
to one person having news problems, specifically
problems seeing scruznet.general articles. That appears
to have been the fault of the newsreading software, but at
the same time I'd noticed news was taking a long time to
appear at other sites, and vice versa. No big thing.

This stuff was very funny the first time it came around several years ago.
Then is was still funny the second time it came around about 6 months after
that. Then the THIRD time it came around 8 months later it was sort-of funny.
In this, probably the TENTH or so iteration, it's just tiresome. Both sides
say the same things everytime this comes up. I can go to the archives for
ba.mountain-folk and scruz.slv if I want "funny" on this topic.

Oh, bullshit, Mike. This did not "come around" several
years ago but began only last year!
Remember when we met in person and I warned you about
certain idiots who liked to stalk me on the Net? I
mentioned at the time that they had not begun posting
as part of this stalking (e-mail was their on-line tool
of choice back then), but that it was only a matter of
time. I can dig out your mail to check the date, but
that was just last year!
