Well then you have a high opinion of your own importance.
Again, I never said that; what I meant -- which I'm sure you understood -- was that unless you say who you were in the past, you certainly will have to "start over" just like any other newbie.
OK, I bow down to the Goddess of FR, Howlin. All Hail, Howlin.
But I am curious: Did you get permission from Jim Robinson to assume your lofty post? Or are you self-annointed?
You know, it's just your kind of personal attack --having little or nothing to do with the subject of the thread-- that I wanted to avoid. That's why I didn't want to "devulge" the old name.
I don't think Jim Robinson founded this site for FReepers to engage in sniping attacks against each other; and I don't think he appreciates it much either.
And I didn't come on this thread attacking you or anyone else personally. I came here to criticize the media, for putting out misinformation; and to criticize the idea that we can jump to conclusions based on the media's very questionable reporting --when we here at FR, of all people, should know to be cautious about what the media 'reports.'
But you're sure bound and determined to make an enemy out of me.
So on this topic, at least, this is my last reply to you, Howlin.
But btw, you never answered my question about bcjohnson.
Retread. And I'm no longer wonder why you won't say who you use to be.
