I have been trying to stay out of this. My sympathies are with Thor, although
I think his attacks on Kenneth were rather hasty- it was probably carryover
from his feelings about JP. But that is only marginally relevant. My point is
this:

Kenneth Herron wrote, about an article posted by Thor Simon:

This is a faulty assumption. THOR SIMON DOES NOT SPEAK FOR OR REPRESENT
PANIX.COM IN ANY WAY. He's simply one of our 300 users who has a longer
memory than others. We have no employees- it's just Jim and me.

Whatever comes of these flame wars, please leave Panix.Com out of them.
Of course, our users are free to participate as they choose...

(Before you flame me for crossposting-- I'm sorry, but I think the original
 article was in all three groups. In any event, followups are directed to
 alt.fan.john-palmer, where I hope they will stay. Out of sight, out of mind...)
