That "deliberate confusion" as practised by some just might be a means of
protection because apparently Mary Ann may try to cause trouble for Usenet
posters in *real life*, e.g. contacting their employers, local law
enforcement officials, schools, ISP's, etc. This is apparently in response
to some who have simply disagreed with her on technical matters or because
they have referred to her by one of her common Usenet nicknames...


Maryanne is an avid SWL from Atlanta who contributes regularly to various
online and print publications centered around Shortwave. Most notably she
forwards press releases and the schedule of Voice Of Russia on a regular
basis to the groups and clubs she participates in. You can find reports
from her in Monitoring Times.


*Big* deal...is this why she has apparently claimed to be a
"journalist"...???

[IIRC she has also posted to BBC, _New York Times_, etc. message boards,
then she has apparently claimed that these outlets have "published" her
"articles"...when she was going on once about articles she'd claimed she'd
written for "internet publications" and I asked her for URL's/cites there
was no response from her...go figure. Does she not realize that when folks
make such claims in public that others just *might* check google or
nexis/lexis to corroborate their claims...???]


The immature males who can't accept a woman as a DX'er in their hobby
ridicule and put her down because she can be quite obnoxious at times, is
tall for a woman, horrendously top-heavy and preferred to wear crew cuts.


Has naught to do with her hobbies, people object to her behaviour on
Usenet...

[And she should know that by posting her pictures, "pageant" awards,
personal details, etc. on public forums and the internet that some of her
detractors just *might* use this info to ridicule her. 'Tis a common tactic
on Usenet, even a child has no trouble understanding the concept.]


Under that exterior, which has shed a large quantity of poundage, and
added
an inch or two of head hair in the last year, she has a heart of gold.

I used to rag on her until one night when a bunch of us got into a chat
room
and started discussing the bad things we said about her. After a few
minutes
of laughing it hit us that we were all being jerks and none of us have
said
anything derogatory about her since. Gee, I think I've done penance.


Why bother? Her behaviours on Usenet haven't changed one bit from what I
can see...

[my above comments are simply my personal opinions..."YMMV" of course...]

I know the person who made the original post.
I plan to sue. This has gone too far. I come back from a week away, and
this bull**** happens.

Joking around is one thing. When it adversely affects one's
relationships, both personal and professional, with the potential to
cause financial loss, then the gloves are off.

I would suggest that the person who made the original post come to me
FIRST to explain their actions. If not----they will be explaining it to
my attorney.

Like any attorney will spend time over some dumb Usenet post...hope you have
LOTS of money and LOTS of time to pursue such a "vanity" case.

How could such a post cause you "financial loss"!? Better have some
concrete figures in hand in *real* life when you make such threats to Usenet
posters.

Get real, Mary Ann - people have said a LOT worse things about *me* on
Usenet (that I'm a gay prostitute with AIDS, that I live in a dirt hovel,
that I've had sex with my mother, etc. etc. etc...). Best to just
ignore/laugh at such posts and move on (and like you I post under my real
name, any employer/business/acquaintance can google my name and find all
this stuff).. If you are so sensitive to flames then I'd suggest you get
off Usenet and stay off Usenet...or find a new alias/persona to post under.

*Now* this poster (who started the thread) knows they have gotten the "best"
of you, and they may delight in making further "mischief" against you,
baiting you, etc. You fell for their troll. Good luck in finding them!

And lastly from what I've read you apparently are no Usenet "angel" yourself
.. If you didn't apparently insist on deliberately ignoring basic
netiquette protocol, netcopping people so much, etc. then perhaps these
"gremlins" would simply ignore you. As it is you've apparently caused a lot
of rancor over the years on Usenet, so you might consider your *own*
behavior. Plus which you have posted WAAAAAAY too much of your personal
stuff on Usenet/the internet. It's something to consider (and I DO mean all
of my comments above *sincerely* BTW, I am not flaming you).

I am VERY much alive. I know the person who did this and they better
come forward to me, and talk to me about why they did this, or if they
don't want to talk to me, maybe they will want to talk to my attorney.

This has gone too far.

account in Italy via another anonymous remailer in Australia.

The cruelest post of all is one which alleges to be from someone who has
so recently passed away. It brings renewed pain to friends and family,
and it is an absolutely horrible thing to do. You are a terrible person.
Please cease these cruel posts immediately.
