You have to first read what Steve wrote: Steve said: 'you do not hear
complaints about financial, or sexual impropieties'
Factually this is wrong because we hear about complaints of sexual
improprieties in the book the CULT. That there are complaints IS a fact. If
these complains correspond to the actual truth is up to everybody's belief.

I haven't. Just now, it was you responding to what I reported and making a
couple of unfounded insinuations, like my supposed antipathy toward Robin.
Right now, and visible to everybody, it is YOU getting after me, just because I
have dared to mention Robin. It is like you are ready to jump any time.

You have no reason to believe I have any antipathy toward Robin. I have no
agenda with him, this is just your fantasy.

But he didn't even read so far, he stopped after page 80 or so. There are
hardly any revelations up to this page.

Well, Robin didn't even read the book which is all about him. He didn't really
care to know, how what he did was reflected in the lives of the people who
spend decades with him, and how they had to struggle to come to terms with it.
I wish him the best and peace nevertheless, but I will give him no special
credit over what others report here.
