Frank,

False accusations are also a criminal act Frank, the more you talk the more
the scales tilt.

Paul,

It seems that at least 1/2 of my posts aren't making it to the list (but I
suspect it's hotmail's fault, not the lists).  Anyway, I posted a very
similar idea to yours.  If it's not illegal to assume someone else's
identity, it should be.  I know it's illegal if it's done for personal gain
(ie:  fraud).  In this case it doesn't appear to be personal gain, but it
must be defamatory in some way.  After all, it's being done to besmirch the
real DagT's character.  If that's not libelous, I don't know what is.

And, certainly, it's not a matter of censorship.  Censorship is about
suppressing ideas.  This is about preventing someone from harming the
reputation of another.  This is about an innocent person being intimidated
and not being able to enjoy the freedom to post on this list due to the
inconsiderate and possibly criminal actions of another.

The perpetrator should be shut down.  I'm sure that Doug's working on it as
we speak.

cheers,
frank
