Michael, that is so crazy and so unfair, I have to protest. Jay
apparently removed one link or one discussion from my talk page, or so
he said tonight on this list. I wasn't even aware that he had done
that. But in so doing, he has brought the project into disrepute and
ought to leave?

I was doing okay-ish before this discussion took place, yes. Not so sure now.

All I can do is make a request to you, which of course you're free to
ignore, and it's that you refrain from saying anything else that might
hurt somebody, whether it's me or any of the other editors you're
accusing. All have acted in good faith; all were trying to help (and
succeeded in helping, no matter what you say); and there were a great
many more of them than the ones you've chosen to name.

If you want to discuss the issue on Wikipedia, which you're claiming
is forbidden, go join the thread about it that's still open.
