Brad, I give you my solemn promise that, other than to remind others of
this contract you have given us, I will not speak of you in this
newsgroup from now on. I will police this contract for you, and will
recruit others to help me in this. I ask you to allow at least 24 hours
for your message to reach those whose news servers are less than
efficient, or incapacitated <Demon being a perfect example>.
I am sorry to hear of your sexual emasculation and hope that you soon
recover. I wish for you God speed, and recovery from your deep anguish.
Please take care of yourself, and let us both keep to this bargain to
which I now sign my name.
Yours, very sincerely,
--
Peter Hood.
Your promises ain't worth a half-inch of the wire they travel over.

Brad, we can't leave you alone if you insist on leaving lies lying about.
1) Many professional people who are not psychologists study behavior:
economists, speech therapists, physicians, businesspersons, marketers,
sports physiologists, coaches, etc. etc.
2) You want to claim world wide recognition as a leading ethologist based
on having a single letter published in a single journal in the mid 1980s
and two articles in the Eric Database...? Wow! From that standard of
measure I *could* claim that I am recognized world wide as a forefront
(not just leading) psychologist because I have a published article (you
don't), several papers in development and review (you don't), a reviewer
for a journal (you aren't), and a several paragraph mention and quotations
in the current (July) issue of the APA Monitor....
(http://www.apa.org:80/monitor/ you knew about that.... silly bear...)
but it would be untrue (the facts above are true, but the claim of world
wide etc wouldn't be true). I am just a struggling graduate student with
an embryonic career and a prayer that I'll get a job when I get my Ph.D.
Cool.... got to toot my own horn.

Notice that this was stated in such a way whereby only he can determine if
he will return or not. If he gives up on our cooporation.... Brad,
As you have been shown before, usenet is inherently unstable. Messages can
take anywhere from 1 hour to a week or more to distribute throughout the
system. You may well get a message refering to you that you don't like as
much as a week from now (whenever you get this message). 24 hour is a
uselessly small amount of time for you to take note of others posting
habits. Give it a week and you will really be able to test your need
against the facts of other's behaviors.
> Deal? -- I shall check again tomorrow. If I give up on your

Dear Brad,
I saw your deal after I posted something referring to you. I did not
know about this and would have respected your wishes had I known about
them. After all, I've been away fromhere for a while.
Please accept my apologies and hopes that you find contentment awaiting you.

You were mistaken in presenting anything to this newsgroup.

Why is that odd? You never bring anything constructive here.

You could be gone without our "cooperation".

That's nice.

What do you mean "again"?

Nobody's going to miss you either.
> It might help if people explicitly sign on to the deal I've maed
In other words, Brad has made an ultimatum, and he will not "be gone"
unless we accede. This is extortion. I for one will not be extorted by
the likes of this spamming idiot. Sure, Brad's a jerk, but any true
usenet veteran has dealt with far worse.

In other words, if we don't do as Brad says, he'll try to be disruptive
by posting more of the same BradCrap ad infinitum, no doubt. Who's the
"thug" now, eh?

How many times have you said you're leaving? A dozen? Two dozen?

OOOOOH...I'm SCARED...we've got to meet these CONDITIONS laid down by
BIG BAD BRAD...I'm shaking like a leaf...

As for being emasculated, good, the thought of you bringing like
minds into the world makes my skin crawl. I would think with as
much time as you spend in front of a CRT typing under your name
and the names of your alters you would be sterile by now any way.
First, everyone knows its you so drop the third person garbage.
Second, I know you have "it". Post after post I have watched
you step on "it", trip over "it", and have finer minds tie "it"
in knots for you.
"It" has taken quite a beating here, perhaps you might think of
hanging out elsewhere before "it" takes anymore abuse.
In article <4v3ap0$i...@news1.t1.usa.pipeline.com>,
I know and others know what the accompanying story is; we have all lived
through it for some months now. W.H. Auden wrote;

It is a question of reaping that which you have sown.
>I though I should ask: When is <laughing>

"...but in the night a little boy is dreaming mysteries

<Harper>
You have a problem with laughter, Brad? Why?
>Shall you try to report
>me for abuse when I laugh back at you? Please lay out the rules here.
Same rules as apply anywhere elsewhere; 1) so-called netiquette, 2) rules
relating to discussions between people supposedly belonging to therapeutic
and psychology disciplines.
>I
>understand that you will try to punish me each time I disobey your rules.
Not Leslie's rules, Brad. Think again. Think about how people respond to
behaviours such as yours, behaviours that you have been emitting to the net
since <I believe> over a year. Did you expect people to thank you for the
abuse that you have heaped on their heads? Punishment? So, you feel pain,
you feel punished? Given the universal negative response to your postings,
what does this tell you? What do you infer? Do you infer that everyone
posting negative responses to you and your plans is of pathological bent?
Is only Bradley Jesness correct?
You remind me of a song written by the beatles - 'he's a real nowhere man,
sitting in his nowhere land, making all his nowhere plans for nobody' - you
epitomise these lines for me. This is because of your apparently magical
thinking. Brad, just because you believe something, just because you can
post it to news, and just because you have an MA does not make what you say
absolutely true. Ring fencing your arguments with assertions about the APA,
professionals, the possessors of Ph.D's, dislike of other disciplines in
favour of your <avowed> own does you no favours. It puts you on the
shoreline, along with the late english Canute.
>I have had to explain much to administrators already given the stories you
>tell and given you send in select parts of one half of our interactions.
Do you have no sense of self? How do you think you are perceived in this
ng? Do you consider the negative feedback that predominates in discussions
about you to be unrelated to the truth? Does everyone in this ng have a
problem, with the exception of you? Do your constant promises to go away,
your half admissions of guilt, and your inablity to accept the arguments
put forward by such as Leslie not tell you something? Does your subsequent
need to explain yourself to administrators not ice the cake?
> Did you tell them that you are the one that forbids any contact by
>e-mail and you are the one that airs all your spite against me publically?
No spite; your arguments were demolished by Leslie, you took to abuse,
Leslie took to laughing it off, you focussed on Leslie's typographical
equivalents to non verbal behaviour. "Laughing with pride" you say in
another thread; I find myself wondering what this signifies, I wonder if
there's some kind of a projection here... ...what _is_ going on in your
mind, Brad?
> Do people know this??
Yes, they know exactly what is going on; Leslie has been up front about
the whole thing. Leslie is not the only one to tell you not to e-mail
her, because of the abuse you hurl privately. If your public persona is an
indicator of your likely performance in private, and if those insults
others have received by e-mail is another indicator, then I fully
understand Leslie's warning WRT e-mail correspondence <as well as those
made by others>, and my personal experiences tell me a forteriori that
e-mail correspondence with someone whose primary behaviours in public and
private are so obnoxious is inadvisable. <I still have your diagnoses in my
mailer, Brad, and please note the use of plural.>
>Do they know that you will always choose to
>publicly insult me and friends and that you YOURSELF are horribly abusive
>?? Do people realize that you want to deny free speech ABOUT ISSUES you
>find offensive as much as anything ??
1) Leslie's not abused you, on the contrary; 2) 'will always'?, is this
more mind reading Brad, or are you forecasting?; 3) 'free speech'? You
presumably refer to a 'right'?
Well, my dear litigiously <APA> minded Bradley Jesness, I will remind you
of this; rights imply duties, each being the opposite side of the coin to
the other. If you have a right to free speech in any electronic forum to
which you post, you also have a duty not to abuse this right and that
includes not abusing others, not abusing anon.penet.fi, and not abusing
your access to numbers of aliases provided by your suppliers, not using
aliases from within netscape/your web browser <which I gather is easily
accomplished>, and not making a mockery of the rights of others to place
you in their kill-files, and thus their right to exclude you from their
newsbase. Do you understand this?
You have made sexist comments about Leslie Packer <and others - shall I
repost some items?>; you have posted abusive comments about the therapeutic
disciplines in general, in a forum supposedly devoted to said disciplines;
you have abused the anon.penet.fi system; you have abused your own
suppliers; you have singled out and abused anyone who dares to disagree
with your ill-thought out conjectures; additionally you cross-post from
within the confines of the preceding points; you repeatedly repost the same
old stuff that we've read before, from within the confines of the above...
...and therefore you cannot be logically described as someone fit to
exercise the right of free speech.
Minute by minute, hour by hour, day after day, week after week, month after
month you draw in newcomers to the newsgroups to which you post. You
attempt to create confusion by eliciting new anon.penet.fi numbers - easily
done, since you have been able to abuse the aol facility for limitless
aliases, and thus I assume you have a massive stock of anon numbers - you
obfuscate, you bluster, you cajole, you confute, you threaten, you refuse
to accept any scientific analysis of your proposals, you reject the
strictures laid down by IRB's/ethical committees WRT your own proposals,
you refuse to accept the limitations of parapros and the need to train
clinicians and therapists with a grounding in psychobiology and diagnostic
categories <to shorten the list>, and you avoid answering specific
questions. For example;
Your supposed track record as an advocate.
Details of your 'organisation', including finances.
Your status as a 'Professor' <in my mailer, Bradley>.
<Spectators please insert others here>
Bradley, how can you expect to be credible at all? Are you a happy man,
Bradley? What drives you into behaving so offensively, with complete
disregard for the truth, and with complete disregard for anything
resembling the 'norms' governing human social interactions? Does the list

That's 66, and I'm willing to bet that there are more in my archives. 66
ways to slip past a kill-file, which means there will be more, and more,
and more, and more... ...ad infinitum, ad nauseam.
From now on my postings will be very intermittent, and probably not relate
to anything therapeutic; there will be little time for me to do other than
concentrate on you and your 'names'/'aliases', as my home is to be gutted
and rebuilt. I will be here for the purposes of making sure that no-one
misunderstands the reality of things in here - namely that the problem in
s.p.p is you, not Dr. Leslie Packer, nor anyone else with whom you take
exception.
Good bye brad.

Well, Brad, here I am sitting waiting for the carpet damage assessors to
arrive. I saw this, and pressed the scroll button. It's quite pretty.
I got to thinking that this post of yours is the most creative yet. It
exemplifies your content and repetitiveness.
I also got to thinking that it's a bit like a cartoon... ...hmmm. Brad,
are you a 'Toon? Or are you merely an exercise in self parody?

<Did you wash 'it'?>
Brad, without a doubt you have had to explain yourself a lot to a lot of
net administrators lately. You are gaining quite a reputation among them.
A reputation you may not find you enjoy. Speaking of laughing, a net
administrator laughed about you just the other day, then he sighed... he
hates to kick people off his service.
What I want to know, from you who says repeatedly that your messages
always have content relevent to psychology issues, is where exactly I
should look in your three posts to this thread which are composed soley
of: <laughing> ? One is 281 lines, one <laughing> each line. One is 66
lines of 5 <laughing>s each. The last is one line, one <laughing>. Where's
the substance, Brad?

Ask us about Client Advocates, the organization: It is a client and
science advocacy group,dedicated to furthering science standards and
practices in the therapy field. We insist on fair and proper
representation of treatments and on providing information about costly or
limited treatment options available to clients "up front". We believe
options and evidence of their efficacies should be provided to clients
before they enter a course of counseling or therapy. Only this would
provide reasonable information before the expense of and commitment to a
course of treatment. Also, techniques or methods used that have NOT been
clearly shown to have efficacy AND validated for a particular,
reliably-identifiable problem type (i.e. showing blind inter-rater
reliability) are NOT be referred to as "therapy." Correspondingly, when
what is done is COUNSELING, the cooperative nature of this should be
made clear and it should be properly represented, leading to appropriate
expectations. Counseling is considered a most noble cooperative
endeavor, requiring the most consideration and intelligence.
You simpering twit. Sorry, but we know about this AKA too.

Hello Brad, we know you by your signs, symbols, and acts.
Simple logic on this one. There is no way anyone but Brad and the list
moderators could know if Brad's posts have ever been censored. Since there
is no reason for any of the moderators to post the above, and the many
other posts from that anon account, annonymously there is no doubt
whatsoever that this post is from Brad.
Let's see if I have this right; moderation is enforced by Hitler-types?
Perhaps you might like to ask Leslie and Norm of their opinions of
Hitler. You might even be surprised. Who knows?
