bob that's avery ineresting approach. please make up your mind if you want to criticize my request or not. invoke the charter or not. I will simply add that if a banned person impersonated you and caused economic damage to your name, you might reconsider the trigger-finger attitude you shoot at me for calling for moderation when I genuinely feel it is needed. When is the last time you have seen me call for it? What does guilt or innocence have to do with internet fraud anyway? we are talking about protecting ourselves here, not imprisoning others. By the way, do you also give all your spamming junk mail 'benefit of the doubt' and read it through? I doubt it because I don't. So whylet a hoaxster do it here for hundreds of people. We know how easily this can be fixed! Our <<Fred Wilson>> need only a complete a profile stating that he is not the Chess personality with that good name and no one will have a cause to grieve him. Instead he thrives on this dirty trick ambiguity. Thanks for caring to write me back, bob.
