Thanks for clearing that up, Curtis. I apologize for assuming it was you. Whoever it was, I am glad they are gone, and given what you have to say below, please don't trip over yourself, trying to join The Peak. Perhaps you and Barry can start your own forum - Best of luck! Me: Could have been cleared up before the accusation was posted, but better late than never. You got your dig in on me even though it was manufactured, and now the retraction can be posted on page 17 near the garden club announcements. Oh well, Internet life.. ---In [email protected], <curtisdeltablues@...> wrote : A few times a year I do a search on my name here and at the Peak. I found this entry by Jim from back in January: Jim: "PS Before you get too carried away with the whole "boot me" meme, I have banned one person, Curtis, who tried to sneak on under false pretenses, just to cause trouble. His alias was cardozy or something. Other than that, everyone who has applied, has been accepted, and no one has been booted. Yes, everyone, no exceptions." Me: I have never applied for the Peak under my own or any other name. I suspect that Jim used his "intuition" rather than any actual facts to make this claim. But on the lighter side someone got canned from his tiny kingdom and was accused of being someone else by an "enlightened" guy! Methinks he may have blown out a possible follower due to paranoid delusions. Jim, you and I have nothing to discuss ever so I don't need to join your group. But I hope you have the integrity to print a retraction for your baseless accusation. And if someone here was using that name I hope you will come forward to bust Jim on his false accusation because if I know Jim, this will start a round of the infamous "doubledown" routine. I know it is appealing for Jim to believe that his group is so desirable that I would take this trouble. But if anyone with a brain actually looks a my posting pattern, I own everything I write, and have never (unlike the slippery Jim) posted as anyone else from my earliest days on AMT. Not only falsely imagining that it was me, Jim compounds his misguided self confidence by claiming to know about the motive of the person who used that name. I am always a fan of an example that shows why the subjective means of gaining "knowledge" is a farce. Oddly it is the quest for subjective confidence in one's knowledge that often draws people to spiritual groups. It makes life so much easier not to have to worry about messy facts!
