Apparently, Melanie, YOU care, since you particiapate on several threads and never let an ankle pass without an attempted piddle. Look who's talking. I don't read every thread, or even this board, every day, and I don't check every topic to see what may have been submerged to second place by another post. I often just skim the most recent, and didn't see this one until reddirt posted to it. I don't appreciate being called a liar by someone who arguably has the worst manners I have encountered since David Cornut. Instead of responding in kind, I will assume that you can support the above statement by quoting your posts on the subject. Melani Van Petten

It's easy to do with search functions here and on AAO for those concerned, where I started it years and years back. AZ may recall as well. It started with the guy named Larson who, when we were mandated to become named people and all, just retained his Anonymous Poster #, which I hadn't thought of and was annoyed about. But, I've had directions to phone numbers and address up for years by Dark Cloud.
As to being honest you, like the British contingent, never actually seem to admit error. The British seem, like my grandmothers, to consider it bad form to back people into a corner, and that is resented more than being right or not. That's a difference between Brits and Americans, but when it allows folks to pass on without admission, it rather defeats the entire point of the exchange: not the 'victory', but that this is correct and that is not and we need not revisit it ever. Failure to nail it down leaves that open, which is a good metaphor for their constitutional view and for ours. Yes. It is.
Look back at your square rigging fiasco. Typo. Misspoke. That. But never an error. Admittedly, that would be bad considering your job.
I admit my numerous errors with hardly a prod needed. So does AZ when he's wrong (I recall both times) and although it's like watching a hysterical and highly caffeinated clumsy insect emerge from a too tight cocoon, Markland does eventually after bouncing around the parameters. Although, he still has not read A Terrible Glory, I'll wager. conz is only interested in posing as the 'authority', never says "I didn't remotely know what I was talking about, here...." (which would be required on several issues) and considers us blessed to have him.
If the Irish contingent chooses to parade itself, it should expect the potato bomb.
Nothing amazes me more than that all these hysterical groups like the Irish, Scots, South, various warrior nations in Africa, and American Indian, rarely seem to learn what it was that actually defeated them. If they had, they wouldn't be trying to return to the old ways today, or celebrate them. It was not just industry and certainly NOT greater warriors than the enemy but that this society is able to adapt, provide, and take the long view (a benefit of linear over cyclical thinking, which has attracted zero remark), the very things that conz' celebrations cover up.
Warrior societies always lose since the British Parliament stopped being silly, and often only win initial battles by coincidence. You may see harmless Love Me I'm Irish! posters, but I see the clear outlines of the regressive clan warriors: stupid, vicious, unable to adapt and provide for their own. Really.
Only in detail was the recently admitted, finally, Irish Church horror different than the barbarism of Muslim mullahs. Children destroyed early. Abused and/or raped. And it was brought here. Yes, the Church. No, the number of people who knew about it all and were confronted with the physical proof did, shall we say, nothing. The Vatican knew back and admits it back to the 1930's, so the Hippy Defense has vanished.

Once again--who cares? As dc said when defending himself after driving off Elisabeth and Doyle, people are free to ignore posts that offend them. Why not just ignore somebody that you think is baiting you and using multiple identities to do it? People can only hijack threads if the other posters let them. Which of course means that you probably should not respond to this, but get back to discussing Weir and Benteen, which I was rather looking forward to. By the way, I thought Tricia was a guy when I first came here and she was posting as Leyton McClean. She changed her name on this and other boards at least four times without identifying herself. Once again, if this is an issue, why not institute the signature rule they have on the West Coast Campaigner board? After the first warning, any posts that are not properly signed are deleted by the moderator. Identifying yourself by your full name should not be a problem for most of the world--after all, we do it all the time in daily life. I care because Joe made it personal on the AAO board. I never asked anyone else to care. We all come from different backgrounds and that is what makes the richness in the posts. As a Marine and a peace officer I refuse to ignore things that bother me but that is me. I would not back down from Custerwest either and will not back down to Joseph Anthony Wiggs in whatever form he takes. Wiggs' MO is to bait people such as you, Melani, to defend him in his forms and you do so by responding to mine or DC's posts. I don't think Tricia ever would have posted such as Joe Wiggs statement; "However, the last time I looked a female was not one of them Perhaps you'ed like a peek. Let me know." For a board that has children and young adults I find that outrageous behavior. Joe has thrown down the gauntlet many times. I chose to pick it up and accept his challenge. Others can leave it on the ground. AZ Ranger

Others can leave it on the ground. AZ Ranger Mel, if Steve is wary of Joe, we should all reread, his/hers or whatever the nom de jure is, posts carefully. I am not LBH knowledgeable and honestly, don't care to be more than conversant about the Custer-Cluster. However, Steve is both knowledgeable and honest and I will dispute anyone who disagrees with my assessment of him over many years. Personally, if someone posts fact-filled narrative under whatever name, welcome to the party. However, if they make it personal, woe unto them. I am now expecting War Lord to sign in on this site (a long story dealing with some California psychotic.) Billy

I guess there's a shortage of computers in New York because the Realbird who posted here used the same one "rch" used. Before that, he was "canby."
It seems Rini has a problem with the truth about this time each year. There was no Bloody Knife, Steve. It was Rini.

I totally don't understand the technical stuff--does each individual computer have a separate, unique IP address, even when there are three different computers in the same house, using the same internet access, as in my house? If I post from my laptop while in Billings, will that show the same address as when I post from my laptop in Oakland? And if I post from my husband's computer in the next room instead of my laptop, will that show a different address?
Diane, I am seriously suggesting that you consider requiring a signature on every post. The way the West Coast Campaigner works is that you must show the name that is in your registration info, as well as a screen name. That of course doesn't prevent anybody from registering under a false name in the first place, but that is more a problem for the moderator. A signature would give the rest of us more of a handle on who was actually saying what. None of us should be making statements we wouldn't want to have attached to our real names.

I don't believe for a minute that you lived in Destin. I checked your IP address when you were "Morningstar" from Destin, and it was from Okaloma. I commented on it at the time. DC did call you out long ago when you were posting as "Pohanka." Quit lying. One thing is for certain, once the witch trials get started it brings out a life of its own. Also. As silly as it seems now, the slot "location" on the member board could mean where you consider your home to be, not just where you are currently living and, it could mean both. Whatever, does an error there automatically mean that as person is a liar? I won't try to explain myself any further. Your comments about me show that you have been stirred up quite enough. Because there are so many interesting and nice members on this forum I will continue to post if it is o.k . For those who are believe that I have 1,000 personalities and a obsession to post as someone I am not (for how long 2 yrs., three, 20?) please ignore my posts. For the other members, I hope to continue to share information and thoughts about the battle and, not personal issues.

Didn't Weir state the he would tell Libby the truth? Whatever that truth was? It would have been interesting to have heard his testimony at the Reno Court Martial.
