Yes, Karla once made that statement. I don't have that particular one
handy, but I do have one that is from around that time which details
some of Karla's tendancies for lying, misrepresenting and other
general falsehoods in the service of, or while involved in "flame
wars":
http://www.n-n-a.com/recreational/post-611037.html
"You are a little disingenuous sometimes, no? A psychodrama was in
progress,
about inflammatory language and sensibilities. Everyone at the time
was
scrutinizing everyone's attitudes about tolerance and intolerance
based on
how they used language here."
"Your friend looked on for years as Cook and Hammes and whoever else
went on and on about Chuckles being gay, then Bishop, and did she ever
write a single word against it? I keep reading Karla's saying that she
had been away from Usenet for a longish spell until 2004."
"Karla thought Cook's famous photograph was funny because it depicted
Bishop and Chuck, and was very clear about it. At one point she even
asked what the new link was duting the time PJR, Cook and others were
moving it around. She also, repeatedly and for months, pretended (with
others and in posts to Bishop) that the photograph was real. Only much
later did Karla make her statement against homophobic language, and
was very careful not to name names."
"Her social conscience that goes on and off like a lightswitch is just
too sickening."

A reference to the Zorro project, apparently. The original website for the
Will Dockery-M.H. Benders "Zorro" project:
http://web.archive.org/web/20041117085027/http://www.kannibaal.nl/shadowville.htm
"In my opinion Will Dockery is easily one of the most authentic American
poets around. A real coffeehouse poet who is not scared of mingling some
real American elements such as country music into his poetry. Whileas you
just try to appear as European as possible with all your sucking up to 80
year old European surrealists." -M.H.Benders
Some of the results from the Zorro project:
"Autograph of Zorro" by Will Dockery, Henry Conley & MH Benders:
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G64jUD1tRRA>
Here's the original version:
http://www.archive.org/details/AutographOfZorro
Splendid times, indeed... more M.H. Benders quotes from the site:
M.H. Benders: "Hey Dockery, what about you reading some of my Dutch poems in
front of a live coffeehouse audience and videotaping it? I'd really like to
make this sort of cross cultural art. I will put it on
my website which is viewed by a lot of Dutch people every day. I wrote a new
poem called 'The Autograph of Zorro'. I have both an english and a Dutch
version. It would be fantastic if you could read it to a
poetry club dressed as Zorro, preferaably in both the english and the Dutch
version. Make someone videotape it and you can send me the
cassette and I will convert it to an internet video. I will promote this
video in whole Holland and you'll sure be a known name to the dutch poetry
crowd. Let me know how we continue."
Dockery: "I think this could be interesting. I saw a short video clip of
yours last Winter on one of the newsgroups that reminded me of the
video films I made with Truman Bentley in the years 1996-99, and the idea of
the reading of "The Autograph Of Zorro" brings back thoughts
of all those hours of footage. I'm thinking of a video for "The Autograph Of
Zorro" that would use not only me reading the English translation of "The
Autograph Of Zorro", backed by my jazz musician
friends, Henry, Grumpy, Follicle, et al... but..."
M. H. Benders: "That's great. It sounds like a really interesting project. I
will promote the video over my website which has about 80.000 visitors a
year, enough to give your name a decent boost into
recognition by dutch people. It's nice that these sort of cross-cultural
initiatives can develop over the internet. So much negativity floating
around that it's good sometimes something positive
happens."
Dockery: "Also various bits by other Shadowville poets and regulars.
Basically, just bring the camera and record what happens. The reading
of "Autograph Of Zorro" could serve as the promo for a further video
surrounding the readings. Over the course of a month of so, if it
clicks right, we could have several alternative versions of the poem, in
both English and Dutch... So, that's the basics, with extra shots
of audience members and other poets, et cetera. I send you all the results,
and you can use the one[s] most appropriate."
M. H. Benders: "Thanks for showing an interest in the cross cultural project
I am planning. You can arrange the reading events in everyway
that you see fit, I trust your artistic vision. When you have taped the
events you can send the tape. It would be nice, I think, to have some real
American elements mixed with it like Country Music (I have
always been a great country music fan) but you can also use jazz if you
want. I will make sure the video is digitalised and shown on different
locations on the Dutch internet. Then, in the future, we can
also try it the other way around."

You know full well that you're replying to Benders' quote. so, that's
misrepresentation number one.
You know full well that I didn't write that poem, so that's
misrepresentation number two.
You know full well that Rik Roots knows full well that I didn't write that
poem, so you're attempting to falsely use someone else's credibility to
further your attempt at deception, so that's outright lie/misrepresentation
number three in one short post.
Just today, you've falsely used Benders', Hammes' and now Roots' words to
imply that they endorse something that everyone here knows they would never
endorse. Add this to your hilarious schtick of *coming here to set the
record straight* that you're shoving down out throats multiple times a day
and one has to seriously wonder what you strive to do here beside irritate
people.
You have no other purpose other than, of course, the comic relief.

No, I didn't write it.
It was never posted to a newsgroup until dockery started posting it here
frequently for the last six years.
It was posted on postpoems.com or poetry.com or one of those other fluffball
vanity sites.
I've never posted any of my work to postpoems, poetry.com or any of those
fluffball vanity sites.
No one who is familiar with my work would ever believe that I wrote that
piece.
So, it doesn't particularly bother me that pizzaboy keeps pretending that I
did.
It's all just a game to him.

So, you admit that I've told you on several occasions that you were wrong,
yet you continue to lie about it.
Awesome.
I always sign my pieces with either *ggamble*, or /gg, as you know.
Now, you and your mentor george will spend the rest of the day googling to
maybe find an instance from 12 years ago when I might have signed a piece
with something different, but I don't have that particular obsessive
compulsive bent, so I'll leave you to it.
Your little game of *you're a liar, so you can't be believed, and it's all
right to tell lies about you* would be really embarrassing for you if you
were a normal person.
I know you want nothing more than for me to engage you in another hundred,
thousand, ten thousand post thread in a back in forth about how you know
better what I've written than I do, but really, I'm not interested.
I can't even be bothered to *set the record straight* every time you type an
outrageous lie about me, that's a full time job in itself.
You remind me of chuckles in a lot of ways. There would be times in the
past when I wouldn't post to usenet for days, weeks, months, (you should
fucken try it sometime) and chuckles would post fake death notices about me
in a hope to get a response.
There were also times when beloved participants from aapc and rap would pass
away, and chuckles would go on and on denigrating the memory of our friends
just so he could be an irritant.
You display the same lack of humanity.
Your self-loathing is obvious to anyone who takes a real look at you, why
else would you build such an elaborate alternative universe in which you are
the undisputed king? I guess there's no real harm in that. I even suppose
you taking your fantasy world to the web is understandable. But, your
attacks on those who fail to play along with your self-deception are
particularly unsavory.
But, you'll continue to go after me especially since Rob Evans isn't here
anymore, you remember: mushmouth? Rob has a British accent, and is an
accomplished poet. He had sound files up on the BBC website. You spent
months denigrating his poetry, his accent and his physical appearance
because he wouldn't play along with your massive, narcissistic
self-deception.
You even went so far as to pose as one of his *friends* in a post to the
comments section of the BBC website in an effort to glean some private
information so you could bring it here to the newsgroup and use that
information as an object of ridicule.
It's in the archives. You're a sick little weasel.
Now, go use your limited imagination to make up some more lies.

That's what it would take to clear some of those millions of bats from

Actually, that was /my/ line about you last year when you were posting
all those fantasy-lies about my life and family, Gary.
As you know, I've never sank to that low level you went to... I have
always stuck with the poetry, such as laughing at your "Pete The Dog"
poem:

No personal attacks, and unlike you, no bizarre fantasies about your
family and you, as you repeatedly posted about me last year. I'm just
commenting on poetry that was posted here, first, "Regrets of the
'Nam" (which, I suppose, is written by another "Gary Gamble", fair
enough), and then "Pete The Dog", which i assume you do admit to
writing.
Here's some of my poetry for that purpose, comment and critique as you
wish, as always:

It was taken off the web and posted here by you.

you apparently don't care how bad the poetry is that's associated with your

Well it had to have been posted here for us to have seen it here,

Actually, that began when Rob "critiqued" my voice, then I discovered
just what a garbled whistle-lisper /he/ was, and critiqued his
"performance" accordingly.

Well, thanks for proving my point for me, Cythera, just as you did
yesterday when you linked to my poem, after making the outrageously
inaccurate attempt at misrepresenting me in reference to it:
> > Last winter he posted again and again that I had written this:

Yes, and a misrepresentation of what I've written, as well, Cythera.

No, you've been using the phrase, which is inaccurate. See below.

> You've claimed multiple times that I took material from Hearn:
Yet you can't seem to show that I ever claimed that you "took
material" from Hearn. What I wrote was:

What I find particularly amusing is that even if gg were the
perpetrator of the above illiterate drivel, he'd still be a far better
poet than you.
Of course, Vogons are better poets than you, but they don't make fun
of your stupidity on Usenet so you don't feel the need to lie about
them.

A competent writer certainly wrote it.
One of the many amusing features of your current simulated crusade is
that you genuinely can't tell the difference between competent writing
(e.g "Pete the Dog") and laughable rubbish (e.g. "Regrets of the 'Nam"
or - even more laughable - anything you've ever written yourself).

You will, of course, be able to support your assertion with some

message-ids, in case you try claiming ignorance, are things like this:

That's the message-id of the article to which I'm replying here. It
appeared in the Message-ID line of your article's headers, and will

gg has never, to my knowledge, used X-No-Archive, so you'll have no

No, I remember when gg often, almost always used X-No-Archive, but
many of his posts would be archived from that time in responses to his

So, why not take some time and show that you know the difference, PJR?
You know, the old "show, don't tell" rule?
Here's:
"Regrets Of The Nam" by Gary Gamble

And "Pete The Dog" by Gary Gamble
http://www.myforumabout.com/art/poetry/re-buried-gg-107703
That should be interesting.
Of course, gggggary has since distanced himself from "regrets..."
I wrote a review of it a few weeks ago.
http://groups.google.com/group/alt.arts.poetry.comments/msg/3ef08ef5b193383e?hl=en
I would say that the more distance he places between himself
and that lemon, the better for his illustrious up-and-coming writing
career.
GGGary, when you release your first publication, can I have an
signed copy? I'm a collector, you know.
You accidentally snipped the link to the poem, so the casual readers
can see what you consider to be the "better poetry", PJR:
http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Rec/rec.arts.poems/2006-01/msg00901.html
"How despicable is a child man, to enhance wrath upon his quaker,
Knowing how frivolous he is upon his own chosen acre
After so very long, my conscience is the stolid host,
Of afflictions imposed upon those I endeavored to care for most..." -
Gary Gamble
Classic stuff, indeed... heh.
Gary's "distanced himself" from poetry of any sort for several years
now...

Heh... Order it from the International Library Of Poetry or whatever
they call it, printed on coffee mugs, t-shirts... you name it.

My ten years' history of discussing poetry on Usenet shows that I know
the difference, just as your ten years' history of metaphorically
lighting your farts on Usenet shows that you don't.
Unless the authors of the two pieces ask me for critique, I see no
reason to comment on them in detail.
If I did write a detailed comparative analysis of the two pieces,
you'd merely snip it and pretend that you were going to read it later
- like you did with the article about poetry that gg posted recently.
But be of good cheer, Dreckery! Stuart Leichter is back, and he's the
kind of posturing twit who'll try to draw attention to himself by
pretending to support you. He might even provide you with a few quotes
like Martijn's.

So was it more correct to say:
1. Duckery noted.
2. Quackery noted.
3. Either 1 or 2.
4. Both 1 & 2.

You're a pussy, Cat.
he/she's an eternal-september.org kook
that has morphed into a dry hump online.
very sad.
Indeed, and hard to believe there was a time when Barbara was one of
the most prolific poets on Usenet, way before any of your times, it
seems:
http://www.youpoetry.info/the-poetry-of-barbaras-cat-perfect-day
"...My friends call me Cat. I just recently discovered this group and
found it interesting. I like the way the participants give
constructive criticism on each other’s poetry. Therefore, if I may, I
would like to become a participant too. Right now, I am going to only
read messages (to learn everyone’s personality) then later, once I
feel comfortable, I will post my opinions and criticisms..." -Barbara

What about that time when s/he went away for
awhile and came back worse than before??
...something about a sporting goods shop, or something.
I remember it cropped up during the HIA days.
S/he wrote a message to the group sharing
a personal feeling of inadequacy as a writer of
poetry and that s/he would go away and return
with "more to offer".
S/he came back and turned into a Duck hunter along
side Hammes. That's about it.
Yeah, and some real cutting swipes from Hammes (who accused Barbara's
Cat of being Tom Bishop!) and PJR (who advises BC just give up poetry,
which she actuall did, it seems).

Yes, I remember that... Barbie promised to go away and not come back
until she was a "better poet", that lasted about a week and she hasn't
posted a poem since in the six years since then.
