List managers? Plural? I don't recall fighting Julia, only you.
I replied:
Threatening to sue Julia for a million dollars isn't fighting Julia?
Jeroen responded:
Did I do that? Could you please quote that post then? I don't remember threatening Julia with a million dollar lawsuit (although I do remember a lawsuit threat going in the other direction).The post wasn't on Brin-l, it was in a 9k message you sent to all recent Brin-l posters off-list on or near Dec. 5, 2002 (Hotmail shows the date and time as 05 Dec 2002 01:09:03 +0100), with the subject "Re: Admin: Server access blocked." In response to Nick's statement that "The list policy is clear and we have answered all the questions that we're going to answer," you responded, "What you are doing is not *list* policy, it is *Arnett & Thompson* policy." And later in the message:
...restore my access to the mail server. If you fail
to do so, you can expect a harrassment law suit against
you, in which I will claim an amount in damages that
will not be less than one million US dollars.... As
Julia Thompson is also a listowner...the above warning
applies to her as well.
Note: it is possible that I have, I just don't remember it and can't find any reference to it in my collection of messages I sent to Brin-L over the years.And you are correct, that is the only incident I can remember that mentioned Julia specifically, the rest were directed against Nick, so if your original intent by saying "List managers? Plural?" was meant to refer to the fact that the vast majority of the disagreement, list-manager-wise, was with Nick, then you are correct.
But even if I did, it was probably a single incident, while I could devote a multi-page website to my fight against Nick.
