I'm tired of being accused of this kind of stuff by everyone who has had
conflict with Bob, whenever someone else has conflict with Bob.

I am personal friends with a lot of people here.  I'm also on the outs a lot of
the time with some of the people here.  I've been fighting with Thorsten for
five years, for instance.  But Thorsten is also still here, despite numerous
complaints, some justified.

I don't like Bob's style a lot of the time, but he spends a lot of time
embattled, and sometimes overreacts, especially when provoked.  The exact same
thing is true of Thorsten.  The similarities are startling, despite the enormous
differences.

There was no moderator email complaint this time.  I believe that I found the
part that bothers Chris Carson.  Bob called him "petty" (an overreaction), in
response to light provocation, after Chris was irritated by Bob and Peter
Gillgasch.  I don't think that any of the posts deserve deletion.  I sent email
to Bob and Chris about it.
