Pengy, unbeknownst to most, Daz's principles are not nearly as "off duty", or "gone" as they might seem to be. I just got off a couple hour long phone call with Dan Farr, who called to find out why I had posted something in their forums they had to delete, etc. He has not read the post that was deleted, and each time I have asked him to come onto this site and read the copy of it that I posted here, he has sort of not indicated if he would, or would not, so I do not know if he intends to or not. However, when I have repeatedly asked that my post be restored, or the thread be unlocked so I can repost it, he has said over and over that they have "enabled" Will Dupre and the rest of their staff to make their own decisions in matters such as this, from which I take it he means they are closing ranks around Will, and even if Will was wrong, he is right as far as Daz goes. Dan Farr did ask that we not be enemies, not have a warlike footing, and I agree with that. I am not on a warlike footing with them at all. I regret it if my post comes across that way to anyone. I do however have a unique insiders view of this matter at least from the perspective of Merrilyn Ellison, and wanted to share a few thoughts, opinions, and observations based on that admittedly rather one sided view of what is going on.
