Assuming that such a list would actually exist, it would contain the
personal attacks against all members, not just against me. If it would only
contain the personal attacks against me, you might say that I am being
slightly paranoid; otherwise, it would be merely a case of data gathering.
Might be interesting for some sociologist who wants to do his or her thesis
on "Dynamics And Inner Workings Of On-line Communities".
