One of Mr.B's many alter-egos leveled some very nasty, vindictive communtary against some of his fellow babblers, especially when they didn't agree with his viewpoint. The situation has continued to blossom since that time despite the efforts of some of us to get it to stop.

> > Cass and Odd, I completely respect your decision to support Mr.B. I have spoken to him in the past and have found hime to have an enormous wealth of knowledge and intellence. I don't understand however how you can be support of someone who chooses to continue to show such a vile disrespect of others. One of you asked for a list of what words were and were not acceptable at PB. If you want a list, I could go back and fill several pages with vindictive comments made by Mr'B over the last 5 months. Maybe then you would know why so many here harbor bad feelings against him. But that would only serve to further this incessant, on-going discussion. If Mr.B wants to make comments based on supportable facts and avoid hurting others while doing so, then I for one would like to see him here. I think he can be a valuable contributor. If he can't then simply, he should go.

> > Dr.Bob, I am very thankful that you have given us this forum. I would have been lost without it. I don't like seeing you or this site being attacked, unfortunetly this is part of nearly every site. IMHO, there are times when you expose yourself to these attacks by simply responding to them. If you feel that a person should be removed fron this site, then just do it. You don't owe us or anyone a reason for it, most of us here know that your intentions are good. But sometimes I think you fuel the fire by responding. Just food for thought?

> > I know so many valuable contributors to this site who either very rarely or never post here anymore because of this discussion, that is a crying shame. This situation has not only hurt the ones involved, but mant innocents as well. When we lose our brothers and sisters here, everyone of us loses! The time is long past due to put this to rest and get back to the business for which this site was intended, the mutual support and education of each other.
