Hi Anne,
 
I was already doing so when I got your posting. I have just put up a
page.

Of course, I have *everything* archived on CD. (I think)
 
I think for Chris Durden's sake I should explain that there has been
an unwritten rule that we don't mention the guy's name here for fear
that he will return.

It is the same for me.
 
Incidentally I have been informed that my humour may not be understood
by Americans. We have a style here where we use irony to say the exact
opposite of what we mean. i.e when I say somebody is a naughty boy
who needs spanking I mean I he is a "real nice guy".

I agree with you. I don't think we need go back over it.
It is impossible to explain everything in a posting. There are megabytes
of data there and you have to follow the whole thing from the
beginning. Even then it is a difficult enough job to work out
where the Loch Ness Monster and O. J Simpson come into things.
For those who are wondering what I am on about believe me you don't
want to know! For those masochists among you there is the public
archive.
 
I have just posted up a single page with a government press releases
some of his quotations that led to his conviction. There is a picture
of him there for those who are curious. (I do try to do my research.)
 
I have refrained from putting up any of his postings because they make
some outrageously false and nasty comments about many of my friends. In
may do so in future but it is a lot of editing to get the disclaimers
and rebutals right.
