This is too much........
When I outed Brian Todd's latest ebay name was that too much? The guy was a scammer who created a fake newsgroup and duped Jane Heine, myself, and Dale Brown into believing it was legit! (and then Jan figured out the truth).
The fact that I'm having discussion at all is mind numbing.
For now, I'm signing off. I just can't get sucked into this time sink...
