OK, now we're back to the usual shtick -- Sheldon and Carl are partners in
crime. All of which makes me wonder why you were complaining that Carl had
forwarded one of Sheldon's private emails. I'm still wondering.

Even if Carl's real motive were to spread gossip and slander (I don't
think it was), he spread it to one other person; you spread it to many.

If his motive were other than spreading gossip and slander, a simple
"perhaps you should contact Person A and get the benefit of their
experience from doing business with Person B" would have done nicely.
Instead Fogel chose to send the contents of emails between himself and
two other individuals. Gossip and slander, pure and simple.

I exposed a slimy little worm to some much needed sunlight.

I found Beryl rather too unstable and lacking in substance under all those
good looks. So I abandoned her.

Because of Mr Ed, I recently switched from IE to Firefox and installed
a Greasemonkey Killfile script:

It works beautifully - I am now blissfully oblivious to his rantings,
and have blotted out one or two other freaks also.
