Thank you Miss M. This is an issue clearly and profoundly understood by those who have experienced it, and evidently cloaked in mystery for those who are operating sans firsthand knowledge.
Dr. P., out of curiosity, have you ever been called a stalker? If so, was the charge true/accurate?
A stalker is somebody who follows a person from one thread to another, generally on the same day, carrying over a fraught conversation. I had one: Talisker. He was banned. I don’t stalk people. But if people are going to continually post articles, it’s natural I should come across them on occasion and make comments - sarcastic ones at that. I also challenge people who have bees in their bonnets and I don’t apologize for it.
And you’re certainly no stalker!
