[ bunches of stuff in support of Richard King ]

I would like to point out that he started this whole mess my flaming me and
threatening me in writing.  The wording in my crosspost was to display my
annoyance at the simple lack of posting courtesy.  Is that wrong?  Notice I
did not say I was pissed off, Richard is an idiot, or anything else like
that. I did say please.  The only point of confrontation was the last
sentence that pointed out somebody else as an example.

If this is to be taken as a flame, then by god, the generally silliness of
life has taken over the net.  Let's sue the next guy that says something we
don't agree with.  Or, let's call out the Gestapo.

Point is, there's going to be general disagreements, or complaints, but
there is no need to escalate it or to take it personally.  Expecting none
is just too idealistic.

I would like to add that I do respect Richard and the Phoenix Project and
wish it a promising and fruitful future.
