Indeed, Marci didn’t say Doug was “lying,” but when one says of 
a first-hand witness that the “history, as I knew it, was distinctive from his 
account,” and “Not sure how to square [Doug’s past reassurances] w Doug's 
current statements,” the implicit accusation seems to me to be pretty clear.

But I should think that this could be clearly resolved:  If Marci wants to 
produce some quotes from Doug that are at variance with his current statements, 
that would be very interesting.  But until any such quotes are produced, I’m 
inclined to trust Doug.

And I agree that we should discuss facts on the listserv without stooping to 
namecalling.

Marc-  I didn't say Doug was "lying."  I said that the history, as I knew it, 
was distinctive from his account.   I think we can discuss the facts
on the listserv without having to stoop to such namecalling.

Saw it. In the next post, she accuses doug of lying to left wing groups about 
RLPA and civil rights. I've responded defending Doug.
