 If you have any suggestions for how you can reclaim
 Fairfield Life, and get it back to some semblance of
 how it was before Judy and Lawson fucked it up, speak
 up.
 
 I think most people do what I do. They skip posts which they
 suspect are flame wars. You, Judy, and Lawson are all capable of
 writing things worth reading. From my perspective, you do so more
 than the other two, especially since you began trying to abstain
 from trashing Judy.
 
 I suspect that if you went back and reviewed Barry's
 posts since March 15 or so, you might have a different
 impression.
 
 He stepped up his anti-TMO/MMY/TMer rants and took to
 trashing Lawson instead of me, with a side trip into
 trashing Shemp.  The proportion of flaming and
 destructive criticism to substance didn't change, it
 was just allocated differently as to targets.

I don't care what he did or what you did. It would be nice if you stopped
criticizing each other, but life isn't always nice, so criticize away if it
floats your boat, but keep in mind that most people skip those posts and
Barry has set up a rule in his email client to automatically delete all of
yours, so you're wasting your time in writing them, unless the venting is
somehow therapeutic for you. If that's the case, there's no need to even
post them. Just write them, feel a wave of relief, then delete them.

 I was addressing your opinion that he had written more
 substantive posts since he vowed to ignore me.

I shouldn't have opined, because I really don't care. I like harmony, but as
t3rinity just stated, some get a kick out of disharmony. To each his own.
 
 , so you're wasting your time in writing them, unless the venting is
 somehow therapeutic for you.
 
 You seem to assume that my responses to Barry's
 posts are all nothing but personal attacks and
 venting, that I don't ever have anything
 substantive to say about his *ideas*.

If you do, I probably miss it because the moment I suspect you're
perpetuating the flame wars, I delete the post.
 
 But I guess that's because you don't read them.
 Why should I take advice about how I should change
 my posting habits from someone who doesn't read
 what I post in the first place?

No need to take my advice. I enjoy reading what I consider to be your good
stuff, but I probably miss a lot of it trying to skip the flames.

 So if Barry posts what Judy believes is an out and out lie, she should
 ignore it because he's not going to read her?

I suppose she can write to to set others strait, but he's not going to be
reading it, or so he says.

No, but you're writings are largely inspired by his writings.

But everyone else needs to be told, for their protection or something?

Whatever your opinion may be, at least I don't take cheap, third-party insults at others...for what purpose you do that, only you know.
