This is a public list appeal to Stephanie Richexter (sp?), the arbitrator of this
list, to note and deal with the vicious personal attacks once again being perpetrated
against me, for no reason I can divine, by Nicole. If you read the posts which I
placed to which she seems to think this qualifies as an answer, it can clearly be seen
that none of them were racist in tone, nor were any of the facts I proffered in them
substantially addressed, much less refuted. How could, and why would, a serious
attempt to discuss substantive issues be at all responsible for inspiring such
venomous vitriol? Perhaps because I dared to have, and even dared to voice, an
opinion that might not be absolutely contiguous with her own, even though I cannot
know what hers is a priori? Heaven Forfend; as has been richly demonstrated time and
again, that sort of impertinence in the face of the Omniscient Nicole will get anyone
savagely broasted every time. I cannot even take discussions with this !
!
person off list, because she brings them right back on. You once said to me that if
this sort of Nicolean nastiness manifested itself again, that you would deal with it.
It is now time for this list to see whether you are or are not as good as your word.
As to the substance of her continuing attacks; neither one of us seems to be ignorant,
but which one sounds racist?
