Alec is just not in possession of the facts.  He should stop posting 
until he finds out what the truth is.

But to confirm what Matthew Brown has said: there were no in-depth 
deliberations about !! on the cyberstalking mailing list that led to his 
blocking.  (Indeed, if there had been, he would not have been blocked!)

This was one admins error, which she has freely admitted and apologized 
for.  Those trying to find a deeper cabal behind it are mistaken.
