Yep - you are so totally correct on this point - you don't come out with direct lies - you just stab people in the back via innuendoes. You don't bother backing these up with information or facts - your choose to let things smolder as long as it benefits your personal agenda and at the expense of others.
Steve, this is classified as a personal attack. Please refrain from them on this list. It does not help to build community, and it only serves to alienate you from the community we do have.
This is not a personal attack - it's an observation. Yes - I have been the subject of Peter Donald's personal attacks - but I am not alone - in fact your could create a community of people that have been attacked by Peter Donald. The point here is the question of the assertion from Peter Donald that he does not lie. In response to this assertion I am simply providing my feedback based on understanding of Peter Donald understands of the difference between truth and lies. Given that my personal experience is significantly different from the assertions that Peter is making - I think it is reasonable that I share my opinion with others. Why - because I don't want others falling into the same situation that I experienced.
Peter Donald can be a dangerous commodity - and I feel obliged to address this. I am somewhat privileged in that I am in a position where I can deal with the public slandering, accusations, innuendoes put forward by Peter. There are many other members of this and other communities that cannot sustain the type of abuse that Pete can so eloquently creates. So long as Peter constrains himself to the subject of technical matters - you will not see any issues from myself concerning his personal opinions. However - when Peter puts forward assertions relating to his moral position I will take him up on his assertions - why - because the damage he has done in the past to individuals and communities is unjustifiable ... because someone has to stand up and say to Pete that enough is enough.
Cheers, Steve.
