I hope list members can appreciate all the fake posts we've received from
the raucouscaucus "friends." It takes me time to chase down the fakes; time
I'd rather spend on my family, my job, my community.

The tactic seems to be to subscribe to the list, immediately post from a
fake address, and then disappear. (I've repeatedly emailed back asking them
to call or email me to confirm identity, but have never heard anything
back.) I'm sorry, since this was "Val's" pattern, I didn't give "her" the
benefit of the doubt after three previous fake posters.

It's just getting old. I hope most members can appreciate my fatigue dealing
with what is obviously a calculated annoyance.

As most REAL listmembers may remember, raucouscaucus discussion is not
banned here. Several verifiable humans, including Dave Piehl, Vicky Heller
and Lisa McDonald, others have posted on the topic.

Posts concerning raucouscaucus do have to conform to our long-standing rules
against inflammatory or insulting dialogue. I know raucouscaucus commentary
has a different ethos, but I think its fair that their "friends" respect
ours.
