    Barbara: "Your principle is correct, but as for myself, I'd never heard of Hsieh until I stumbled upon her web site and sent in a few posts -- after which I was insulted and denounced." My mistake. She denounces you with all the vehemence she seems to reserve for her former friends. Michael: "Hey Mick! Fred who?" Indeed!

    Fred Weiss made this idiotic post on SOLOP http://www.solopassion.com/comment/reply/1379/15453. Give me a break! Barbara Branden, Nathaniel Branden, Chris Sciabarra and Robert Campbell offered Ms. Hsieh personal friendship and professional support. In return they got shit on. Oh the morality!

    WSS: "For bonus points, my inestimable esteem to the first person here who can not only identify the author of the passage below, but also speculate to good effect on why the passage made La Perigo flip out . . ." Ah, Lincoln's first Inaugural Address, what a beautiful speech. As for what made "La Perigo flip out", I don't know. What I do know, is that it's hard to beat the discourse I found as a lurker on SOLOHQ.

    Michael writes about William and Victor: "You are both talented satirists of the first order". I concur! Although I must say, when I first encountered Victor's posts on Solo, my impression of him was that of a fratboy on steroids. Anyway, yes, props to Robert Campbell. His reasoned defense of the Brandens and Chris Sciabarra are always a treat. Mick

    Ethan, Except for the "They Banned Kenny" debacle, Robert is doing an admirable job defending good people from unfair attacks. In what ways do you believe Robert is doing a poor job? Because the "wolf-pack" says so doesn't make it thus. Mick

    Michael and Kat, It’s good to see Objectivist Living up and running again. I’m so pleased that the rumors of OL’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. Mick

    Michael, I agree with Robert; it's better to ignore the likes of Lindsey Perigo, James Valliant and Diana Hsieh. I can certainly understand your anger at the smears leveled against good people like Barbara Branden and Chris Sciabarra, but the slanderers are rather insignificant and unworthy of thought. It took me a while to get over my anger and realize this. Robert, I was unable to attend TAS/TOC Summer Seminar. I'm looking forward to the availability of these talks on line. Mick

    Kat, I agree. I encourage all who care about Chris to support him at this time. Noodlebrain's betrayal shows her to be both ungrateful and unethical.
