Jimmy, you have an urgent job of communication to do.  To a lot of the
community this looks like you giving greater weight to the feelings of
a persistent thorn in Wikipedia's flesh, than to long-standing and
highly valued members of the community against whom Brandt has
launched personal attacks, and deliberate, calculated, real-life
harassment.  I am not sure I understand your thinking here, and I am
absolutely sure that the overwhelming reaction of most people is
"WTF???"
