Would they rather I sue them??? OR how about laying criminal charges?
Libel committed with malice is a criminal offence. How difficult do you
think it would be to prove that some of the libel against me in here
has been done with malice? Likely not difficult. Not difficult.

I didn't commit extortion and blackmail. To publicly falsely accuse
someone of committing such a crime is libel, a type of libel in which
one does not have to show proof of damage. 

One of these days you fellas are gonna mouth off about someone who is
going to hold you accountable via taking legal action. You fellas seem
to think for whatever reason that you're untouchable IRT what you say
on the 'net, publicly or privately in email. That is not so; there is 
a fair bit of case law IRT these issues. The Chief of Police in London,
Ont., for e.g., successfully sued the man who libeled him on the 'net.
IRT email, what happened to that teenager in Winninpeg? Do you remember
that case back in March, 1966 when Winnipeg police made Internet history,
arresting a teenager for sending email to someone with remarks about
homosexuals that was considered to be "hate crime" ? Wonder how the
law would view the email I get with remarks about Lesbians and me??
That's hate mail against an indentifiable group. Email about my sexual
parts, my "cunt", calling me a bitch DYKE, etc. is sexual harassment.
Slurs against a woman's sexuality is another type of libel that is
actionable per se, i.e. one does not have to show proof of damage. 
I have been libeled in here in this regard by many men, many times.

Whatever, you fellas have the choice to send such email, make such posts;
I have the choice to take some action, be that through your employers or
the law. Or just "shooting my gums off". Keep in mind fellas that you made
the first choice.
