I don't meant to characterise all concerned as a mob, by the way -
several people while taking some part in the process did their level
best to make it less hostile, and I salute them. Nor does that mean
the concerns expressed are not valid.

Unfortunately I'm not sure that individuals attempting to make it less
hostile can possibly have much effect. No matter how reasonable and
careful everyone is being with their statements, the scale from Essjay's
perspective must be daunting.
