Hi Stephen,
As someone who has litterally been there before I know what Damien needs 
is some time to himself and down time. When the community lashes out  as 
they are now it is often best to not be active until things die down.
I don't think Damien should go yank his web site down and totally leave 
the list, but I do think all he needs to do is stay away from his email 
for a day or to. Perhaps put a few nasty peoples email addresses in his 
junk filters.
Believe me when I was being verbaly abused by a few members of this 
community a while back over the time it is taking to complete Monte and 
Raceway I eventually just put their email in my filters and off to the 
trash they went. I told them nicely that I would get it done when I 
could, and when they cussed me out I told them I was blocking them as I 
would not respond or argue with unreasonable customers.
