Looks like this whole thread has wandered off into chatroom, personal
correspondence territory.

Would it be OK to use a different header?

Threads based on name calling and personal attack are never a helpful
thing, and once the focus has shifted from the alleged personality
traits of the unfortunate target there isn't a single reason to
continue dragging his name through the mud.

My 2 cents worth, keep the change. :-)


So if a post shows up under this header it should be disregarded because of
the header? What's wrong with the header? It's an honest, succinct header
that states a fact, not an allegation.

JohnH,
Chuck was not commenting one way or the other about the veracity of
this or any header based upon name calling or personal attacks, he was
commenting on the damage to the NG by perpetuating name calling and
personal attacks, especially when it highlighted by using a header
where the subject is a personal battle.

I wonder which is more damaging, the header or the acts themselves. In any
case, I don't care if the header goes the way of all good, honest headers.
Think on it, you and Chuck have kept it alive for two or three more days!
It would not be polite of me to disregard messages addressed at me.

BTW, the donations are still coming in:
