For those of who new to these discussions, she makes the connection that because
some man said the above to Karen Gordon and I did not complain about the
comment, that I am responsible for the comment being made. I can assure anyone
who cares that I made no such post, do not recall who made the post and only
know that it was made as Ms. Amero compliained to me about it and I went looking
for it.
Just her way of twisting the facts to suite her narrow minded agenda.

Hmmm. should a copy of this be forwarded to her ISP ;-)
