Blood, Lies, and Family Ties...

I have been in and out with the blog lately...busy times, back to school in about a week... =(

Anyway, it was brought to my attention that some of you were discussing the bloody sheet. I was forwarded a few emails that may or may not shine some light on the issue...for me, this just reinforces the fact that the main source for some of the "facts" in this case cannot be trusted!

Hmmm....



If anyone is interested, the text of the original "Stand by Your Man" blog post is as follows (I can forward the PDF file if verification is needed, I just cannot post it here):

STAND BY YOUR MAN
I was surprised when I read recently about how Courtney Roberts, present during the time Ayla Reynolds was reported missing, thinks Justin DiPietro is a “stud” but that her opinion is biased. I should say so; I just thought it would be biased in a different way bearing in mind the information provided to me by Ayla’s mother Trista Reynolds [was the info really provided by Ayla's mother, or is this another one of Jeffrey's creative thinking episodes?]. I really think Courtney Roberts is showing great courage and fortitude sticking with her man through all this even while the evidence of his possible involvement continues to build. I just don’t understand it, considering the six month long affair Justin was having with Trista between May 2011 and one week before Trista went into rehab in October 2011 [hype, why must this be made into more than what it was?].

In all fairness, having sex with the father of your child three times in six months scarcely counts as a full blown affair [ya think?]. Perhaps it is more accurate to say Justin cheated on Courtney Roberts three times with the mother of his child. I commend Courtney Roberts on her loyalty to her man. While she was out of the apartment going to school to improve her life or at work earning a paycheck, Justin was at home with Trista making love [LIE]. I cheated on a girlfriend once and it was the worst mistake, I could not live with the guilt, so I told her. I pleaded with her not to leave me and she didn’t, not then, but our relationship soon fell apart. There can be no love where there is no trust [There is obviously some sort of love and/or trust. Despite the rumors started at U4A, Justin and Courtney remain together AFAIK...JEALOUS MUCH?].

Trista, for her part, always wanted to be with Justin; actually, she wanted to be a family. The thought of her and Justin together with Ayla had, until recently, been her fondest wish. So when they mutually agreed to make love that first time after Justin had been living with Courtney Roberts, [Justin didn't live with Courtney, or vice versa] Trista believed that her dream of a genuine family was coming true [even though she says she didn't know Justin, and that they were just "mutual friends"]. She was concerned for Courtney Roberts feelings however but Justin assured her that it was none of Courtney’s business and “what we do is what we do”. Bold words. [She was concerned about Courtney?]

Since there was no real evidence of this secret relationship, I can understand why Courtney Roberts would believe whatever her man said over law enforcement, love is blind after all. But now investigators have verified to Trista that her blood was identified on Justin’s sheets that he travelled with from Portland. I can’t imagine the humiliation Courtney Roberts must have felt when investigators told her she had been sleeping in Justin and Trista’s queen size love nest [Love nest? Having sex with a man 3 times does not equal love]. Whatever else you make[sic] think of Courtney Roberts, you have to give this girl credit for standing by her man.

I have to give the Reynolds and Hansons a round of applause. They are quite frankly some of the greatest storytellers I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. Are they making things up to "shake trees", or are they giving you all cold, hard facts? Will they say things for shock and awe? Will they say things to make Courtney feel bad, even if those things are not true? Will they say things to make Justin look bad, even if those things are not true? Why are they posting comments, pretending to be other people---all the while accusing ME of doing that, when I am not? Who is "Wordman"? It sounds to me like he and Jeff may be one and the same...

I can't forget about Tori, even though she's MIA. She also knows how to spin things just as well as anyone else...


 
So, she's in jeopardy of going to jail, and her big concern is how to use the information on a blog---without making herself look bad? No concern for how bad you look being handcuffed and carted off to jail for shoplifting. No concern about the example you're setting for your children...Just concern about looking good and JSTL finding out. Silly rabbit, tricks are for kids. How much of the above story (they love the blog) is BS?

  1. As the saying goes, Courtney's either brave or stupid! Looking at her as a person she doesn't appear stupid (but love does make the brain go gello). I have no real opinion on Courtney except to say that I think she's caught up in a very unusual and unfortunate set of circumstances.

  3. No surprise to me.
    It was pretty plain, the reason for the The Stand By Your Man, crappla.
    Man enough to tell such a *story*, but not man enough to put it on his own blog. Of course not.

    Poor Jeff he was so tired, and so distraught, he needed to take a break from blogging at that time. Had to reroute his website to J4A & another vindictive blog. Yeah he was distraught alright.

    Tori,
    What I find most curious is. ."Don't run with this until I talk to Jeff" ?? Hmmmmm...
    The BS about WVP liking her blog, so extended her a courtesy... Don't believe that LE opperates that way.

  5. This truly gets curiouser & curiouser. I love how the truth comes out. I only pray that the truth of Ayla's whereabouts comes out very soon. She needs to be home with those who: love her, are actually WORKING TO FIND HER, believe she's still alive, and love her with all their heart.

    This has become a game for U4A. Their true colors are showing. If you dare stand up for a LIVING AYLA, you get hatred & big, tough swear words thrown at you. Yet the ones running the blog are obviously manipulating those that read & believe every word they say like a bunch of sheep. It's absolute craziness. How is feeding hatred of Justin, Courtney, Phoebe, and Elisha doing ANYTHING to find Ayla (even if you think she's dead)?

      I have been informed by Jeff that my comments are now in “mandatory moderation” due to complaints received regarding their “graphic nature”. Jeff informed me that further complaints will result in my being totally blocked from posting here.

      I would like to extend my deep apologies to those I have offended.

      I will be moving on as I do not appreciate being under the umbrella of “mandatory moderation.”

      I will continue to seek answers and justice for Ayla, and I know you all will as well. That is what matters.

      I will be gravely disappointed if this departing post is not permissable. I think it would reflect poorly on U4A as a whole.

      My best to all of you, including those that I did not see eye-to-eye with.

    3. Yes I got deleted for coming to McKee's defense. No comment moderation, they just removed all my posts and deleted me. I asked John P abput it and he said I have to ask Jeff why.

    8. John P is naive. He wants to be liked. Which is why he allows the blog owners dump their mess on him....heis always stuck trying to answer questions while they disappear. And I think Tori has disappeared for good reason. She supposedly had "internet issues" per John P. Intenet issues for this long, yet she can sometimes post on FB? Puleeeze. And gullible John buys it and passes it on like its bible. She isnt around because she is hiding. Wonder why?

      Delete
    9. The truth is you cannot have a neutral, unbiases blog at a family site. The site was originally develop by Trista's family to put out information and get support from well wishers. That was fine, anyone can do that.

      When Jeff made his own blog that was fine too. Even the J4A blog was fine on it's own. But when they merged, the J4A blog could no longer represent themselves as unbiased. At the original J4A I do feel that some opposing views were accepted, though not many with opposing views would stop by and comment. At the new blog, it quickly descended into a biased family blog. They took in-experienced Moderators (John P, etc.) (and that's just my opinion) and threw them into the deep end of the moderation pool. Since they had their own emotional attachments and a desire to not hurt Jeff/Trista, they quickly decided to delete or moderate any post they felt might hurt. I would venture to guess that neither Jeff, Tori or the current moderators have had blogs or done much moderation before this case. I've been on the internet bulletin boards, forums (have my own family forum) and others since 1989. It's not easy to moderate fairly and you mix in a missing child and emotions and it can be a disaster. That is what you are seeing at United for Ayla (IMO).

      In order to have a truly neutral discussion group, the moderators have to be neutral in their thinking about the case. OR they have to be extremely good at allowing what they personally do not believe to be stated publicly. I will say, Obscure does a very good job at that. I'm sure that Obscure (like most of us) has her opinions on this case, but she allows others to speak out (from what I have witnessed).

      I want to feel free to ask question and I want to feel free to question what people have to say (any of the people). In my opinion, if someone is going to say bad about anyone, they should be questioned and not taken verbatim. As far as I am concerned the only innocent people in this whole case is AYLA and the good people who are truly trying to find out what happened.

      The biggest lesson in this for anyone who wants to run a blog, or participate is, allow people to have their say. You might not agree, and if not, challenge what they have to say. You don't push people out with name calling and such just because they see something from a different angle than you do. Don't put people in nice little boxes labeled this or that. There is no one label that truly fits any of us. We are unique with individual views. It's why we all come together to talk. We all have something to learn and we all have something to teach. The smart people know this already! - KJ

    10. Agreed! The thing that really rubs me the wrong way at this point is, if you dont want me and my opinions there fine. But to delete my comments then quote me saying things I didnt and/or change the context is shitty. I dont appreciate that, I never showed anyone any disrespect while I was there. I wish I had never commented there at all. Now I cant even defend what they are saying about me or things I said. Its easy to attack someone who has no way to defend themselves isnt it U4A?

After a while of hearing it over and over, one starts to question why the need to continue with it? I think there are many raw deals being handed out all around in this case. All I want to know is what really happened to Ayla and where is she? - KJ

    Tori's statement about the fines is BS The charge was more than driving without a license. She was in court March 2010 for this and it seems to me after spending 120 days in jail you wouldn't just casually forget about the fines you have to pay because you were busy.

    I am not saying this info is accurate or not, but then again how can you? If you are not affiliated with the family, how can you say "[LIE]" to anything related to Trista and Justin? All due respect, If Justin did do these things of course he would say it was a lie because to do otherwise is to admit he cheated on Courtney. I could extrapolate that out further to say he might not want Courtney that mad at him in the event she knows anything that could be used against him (but that would be making assumptions and assumptions are not allowed here). Yes, I know you are going to say Trista has lied too... but that doesn't mean lies aren't coming from other areas as well. Lies are not mutually exclusive. How do you personally KNOW fact or fiction? Have circumstances changed? Are you now affiliated with the paternal side of the family? It's important to know ALL of our sources, not just discuss how bad people think the ones from the maternal side are.

    1. I agree, how would we know either way? But why one earth would he keep bloody sheets from an affair he did not want to continue? Not to mention that he does have another child which would have been conceived during the time he and Courtney were a couple...maybe they have an open relationship, who knows.

      Delete
    2. IsthisCharlieSheen?8/17/12, 3:12 PM

      IF he was having an affair, how do we know he did not want to continue? To me, still having bloody sheets in his possession means the affair was quite recent to the time he moved the mattress and sheets to Waterville... so the "visits" (changing the word from affair because I know people will jump on that word) probably only ceased when Ayla went "missing" that next day. Not many people would keep unwashed bloody sheets lying around very long. Especially when they have a girlfriend who did not bleed on them. Again, I'm not able to say if these statements are true, but how are you going to discount them? Take Justin's word (which would be Justin's word through someone else because he does not comments about such things)? Take Obscures word? I'm just saying, it's easy to say something is not true, not so easy to adequately back that up - and I have to say this is an answer that I think is more meaningful than not. Prove the "visits" and you prove there are more liars than just Trista out there. Something many people are not willing to look at currently.

      Delete
    3. CharlieSheen---how the hell do you know the sheets were UNwashed?

      Trista (via Wordman) herself has told us when the "affair" ended, so why would you speculate beyond that time frame? Also, Trista (via Wordman) says the affair was not even really an affair. It was 3 sexual encounters.

      You DO NOT have Trista's direct word with regard to these things either.

      I'm NOT asking anyone to take my word for anything. When I post facts, I usually make that clear. When info is given to me, I make that clear also.

      Proving the "visits" to me proves that Trista was lying about the abuse, about Justin keeping Ayla from her, and about why she filed for parental rights and responsibilities. How does that prove Justin a liar, when he has not spoken on the issue?

      Delete
    4. IsthisCharlieSheen?8/17/12, 4:24 PM

      @ Ob, point taken, I do not know if they were washed or unwashed. I had not considered that they were washed and still point to Trista (if they truly did with LE). I do not have Trista's direct word on anything, but I also have not said anything is for sure true or not as you have a couple of times.

      Per Derek on a previous post, Justin denied having these relations with Trista, so yes, proving the "visits" would also prove Justin to be lying. I made the assumption that Derek was repeating something Justin actually told him, and not that Derek himself was lying.

      The blood on the sheets is relevant if it is Trista's. There is no getting around that.

      Delete
    5. I assumed from what I read about the sheets that they were washed and that what was found was residue left in the fibers. Not necessarily that the blood was viewable or even new. I definitely could be wrong in that assumption, but it was what I understood it to be. - KJ

    6. The issue for me is not whether Trista & Justin had sex, or how many times.
      It's the pure vindictiveness of this. Jeff in his email to whoever plainly says "He's setting Courtney up for the post he will do tonight".

      Another thing, Trista didn't write this, Wordamn did, whoever that may be. Jeff says .."this is a draft of what wordman has compiled from the *data we gave him*. Who is *we*? Why is there a *WE* involved? Shouldn't there just be Trista involved in telling this story?

      As well as.."see how the one sided text messages fit into it".
      Come on...Doesn't that suggesdt that this is contrived in some ways?
      That's my opinion anyway.
      Contrived and vindctive. That's Ayla's grandpa Jeff.

      S - I agree that it was contrived... it wasn't put out there for full-disclosure, it was aimed at Courtney and Justin... which is obvious by the manner in which it was presented. Hard to know whose idea it was, or what the motive, or what part(s) of it is true.

    8. S.

      Good post.

      For those interested, here is Jeff's email to me:

      "mckeekitty, I have received several complaints about the graphic nature of your comments. I have set your main IP to mandatory comment moderation before they can be posted.. If there are any more problems, I will block you completely... or at least until Tori can decide how to handle it."

      Needless to say, I was stunned. I did not see this coming. I was a Morning Sentinel poster for the most part, and dipped my toes into the blogosphere soon after J4A launched. When I started asking some "difficult" questions these past couple of months, I was given the typical "stop reading too much into it, mckee."

      Now I've been booted from U4A. There seems to be a sudden and desperate attempt to shield and protect Trista that I cannot understand. Posters that came to my defense have also been booted from U4A.

      I do appreciate KJ's (M-I-M) posts here. A voice of reason.

    11. "He's setting Courtney up for the post he will do tonight on J4A." Does Wordman really believe what he’s been told? Does he think Courtney will be so upset with Justin that she will run to the police and confess that Justin killed Ayla?

      "This is a draft of what Wordman compiled from the data we gave him..he just has to make a few small changes (Courtney was not living with Justin).” What other changes is he making? This does not sound like Trista told Jeff about sleeping with Justin, and then he relayed it to Wordman. Sounds to me like Trista and Jeff got together and concocted a story and conned Wordman (if he’s not Jeff!) to post it. And why not write his own blog? Is it more believable if someone else writes it?

      “They” say Trista has bared her soul to the public. That certainly must make her innocent? Right? But…..she said she never knew Justin, they were just two mutual friends. Then 4 months later, “The thought of her and Justin together with Ayla had, until recently, been her fondest wish.” (Until recently?)

      Yes, vindictiveness and extreme jealousy.

      Of course, this is all just my own opinion!

      Even if it was true that Trista slept with Justin 3 times, and she bled on the sheets, you have to wonder what the significance of telling that is. What in the world does it have to do with Ayla’s disappearance? How is this connected to Ayla disappearing and how does it help in finding her?

      "Wordman" posted that story on J4A. I am guessing Jeff didn't want his name or his blog sullied by it.

      Although it may not have any bearing on Ayla's disappearance, I believe it has a bearing on this case. If it's true, it could explain the blood that MSP was waiting for results on... and some of the blood they may have initially thought was Ayla's was not.

      Yes, if true, it could help explain the blood that was found. So... the "cupful of blood found", the"more than a small cut would produce", was not all Ayla's blood? I think the comment about Trista's menstral blood actually makes their accusations about Justin brutally killing Ayla, and "spilling her blood all over the place" even "more" unbelievable.

      Bringing up blood from Trista, IMO, was in response to the statement made by LE that all the blood was not Ayla's. They, for some reason, felt they needed to explain who else's blood was found? Why? That discredits the cupful of blood (of Ayla's). They didn't think it through, it was just a nasty remark directed towards Courtney. More than a small cut would produce? Sure, menstral blood is more than a small cut would produce.

    quoted from April 2012 - "Trista, for her part, always wanted to be with Justin; actually, she wanted to be a family. The thought of her and Justin together with Ayla had, until recently, been her fondest wish."

    Interesting.

    1. Justin never tried to hide anything from Courtney. She is not the jealous type at all from what I saw. When Trista was telling the Nation she was not speaking to Justin for weeks after Ayla went missing he spoke with her daily. Several times a day. Some calls lasted for quite a long time. Where was Courtney? Right there. How do I know? I was was right there also. And I am here to tell you I saw no jealousy at all.

    4. McCausland stated: "some of the blood was visible to the naked eye, and some through luminol".

      If they found a "washed" blood stain on a bedsheet, that was only visible through luminol, why would they think it was related to Ayla? Justin washed the bloody sheets and put them back on the bed? I highly doubt that. IF they found blood that had been cleaned up, it was not on the sheets.

      Besides the fact, testing can tell if it is menstrual blood vs. regular blood. Why would they DNA test obviously old mentstrual blood (assuming the sheets weren't washed)?

      There's a big, looong story behind the sheets on blood statement. Above, S.'s comment already says what I think: Jeff? Tori? John? Trista? Wordman? Whoever? My temperature flashpoints when I see words like 'set up Courtney'.

I can try to use the net to find you, read your thoughts, return to my computer, and answer 'yes' or 'no' - as long as 'saying' includes 'thinking' and 'writing'.

      I don't want to leave a 'false impression', but I do want to give Trista an opportunity to correct their course. Attacking Courtney in such a way is off limits. By that, I mean to say that I will not remain silent about the blood evidence and Trista's involvement. In the end, it has nothing to do with Ayla's abduction.

    7. @the space between - a 'chain of evidence' breaks down because of opportunity in an unmonitored environment. She could have done the entire National Guard on Justin's bed before he moved it, and it still has nothing to do with Ayla's disappearance.

      Think about this. When was the last time you moved a large bed? Did you leave the sheets on the bed when you moved it? Or did you take the sheets, blankets, and pillows off the bed? You are using a truck to move a queen(?) size bed. It's not easy or clean.

      Now you're home. Your buddies take the bed inside and you grab a pile of sheets. You hold the door open for your buds. They walk into a darkened home because the sunlight has dialated their pupils to pinpoints. Your buds ask you where you want them to put it. You toss the pile of sheets down on the floor, where they can wait for laundry, and help your buds.

      This is why I mentioned the importance of knowing which way it went... 'blood on sheets' or 'sheets on blood'.

      I beleive Trista left a (shopping) coupon for Justin; maybe in protest of a bank savings account. "Now to leave the coupon." Reading... "Good Buy" (good-bye) - more words spoken about savings and redemption.

      The whole thing is unbelievable - I thought it was 'aftermath' - after a trial, conviction, and now rehearsing for a movie. It was all premeditated.

  18. McKeeKitty,

    I'm not sure if you noticed but the shit-storm on the other blog seemed to start when there was a suggestion about a post topic on Justin Linell and the Cool Street sighting. They didn't start a Linnell topic, but the Kadoe topic didn't go over well. That post brought about the most bitter comment-fest I've seen on there. And, sadly, it was all due to the desire to look at things from a new perspective.

    Anyways, I'm posting over here in case you don't go back over there. I think it's really crappy how they ganged up on you the way they did.

    1. From what I've seen, they treated kadoe very badly. Why? Why isn't her story of Ayla being alive acceptable? Because, they believe Justin killed Ayla, and that is all there is to it! Oh, of lately, they all wish
      Ayla is alive, but at the same time they "know" she is dead (at Justin's hand).

      It's good to see you (mckeekitty), and others, starting to question what happened to Ayla.

      I will add, I do not believe Phoebe had anything to do with Ayla's disappearance.

    5. @Obscure

      Yes, furry boots. Her friend supposedly saw Phoebe (wearing furry boots), early in the morning, with three men, of which one was carrying Ayla. Apparently her friend thought Ayla was alive, but U4A commenters said (if it was true) Ayla was dead. UGH.. Something to that effect! That is why I brought it up, Ayla is always dead in their scenarios!

    6. Again, the only reason I brought it up is because even if someone blames Justin, or a family member, Ayla can't be alive!

      the witness believes all the people got into the car. i believe phoebe n the dips staged an adbuction. who else knew the house and which coat was ayla’s. the child was wrapped in the coat. if i were to take my child out for a walk on a cold winter’s morning, i certainly would put the coat on a sleeping child. not to difficult to put a coat on a sleeping child. they were in a hurry to get the child out of there. i don’t believe they would carry a dead body several hundred yards to the parked car. the child appeared to be sleeping. i don’t care what alibi phoebe has. she WAS SEEN on cool st that morning. phoebe needs to be raked over the coals, slowly.

THE WITNESS SAW PHOEBE THAT MORNING. it wasn’t someone who looked like her, it wasn’t the wrong morning. at this point i really don’t care what people call me. i know a key FACT involving this case, and that gives me a sense of peace. i don’t really care about the bed, the blood and all the other bullshit. that baby was alive that morning when taken from the home. in all your minds, please play out your theories with phoebe taking that living child from the home that morning. the people who say this story is bullshit, should be looked at as causing a diversion.

At first I thought it might be McKeeKitty, only because she had just left U4A, but the person who is Anonymouth said he/she is not McKeeKitty.

      One of the reasons I post here with my Missing In Maine account, is that everyone already knows that one and when I post, I have no problem with my post being credited to me. It also helps prevent others from "pretending" to be me.

I even struggled with allowing the comments that were obnoxiously rude to Selena. But you know, as much as I respect and appreciate her for speaking out for her family, it's not my place to shield anyone from what's out there. (Hope you understand, Selena!) I also allow the crazy stuff to be said about myself.

      So, with all of this being said, good luck with your blog, but these types of comments are not necessary. Use your platform, it's much needed. Go forth and do great things!

    16. Anonymouth, I wish you luck with your new blog, but I think you can understand why people are hesitant. There have been some very weird things happening with people and blogs (in this case). People are going to naturally be cautious.

      If all you say about yourself and your blog is true, it will show by how you run it and how you handle those that post there.

      At this point, I find that this blog allows all discussion, regarding of one's opinions and theories. That makes for good blogging, in my opinion. - KJ

    18. McKeeKitty, I'm glad to see you here too. I like the way you question things and do not just take things as people say them. It's obvious to me that not everything in this case is as it appears. Welcome! - KJ

    19. @ KJ,
      Just so you know, it wasn't your blog that I was referring to that was around in early May. The person did use the name Anonymouth. There was a HUGE difference between Anonymouth & Anonymouse, and that blog and your blog.

      I haven't visited the new blog yet. Doubtful that I will comment there.

    20. M-I-M. Thanks. Your presence here makes me comfortable.

      I'm being called cancerous, venom-filled, hateful, and other vile names over at U4A because I simply had some questions. The admins allow the attacks to go unchallenged. It is as though they are watching a cock fight, and relishing the spectacle.

      I have no allegiance to any blog, but I do appreciate the exchange of thoughtful opinion and analysis regarding this case. I sense you do as well.

      I don't know when this became a Justin-did-it verses a Trista-did-it game, but it has been reduced to such. How about Vear? The Tudelas? Linnell? An unknown? If I'm not burning the Dips in effegy, I'm not welcome to contribute. It wasn't always this way, but it is now. And I have to ask myself "why?"

    21. mckee - I read over at J4A when it first started. My perception is things started changing when crime enthusiasts from SA started posting their strong opinions.

      Since you don't wrap your words in a silk bow, people can take that as being antagonistic the moment you don't agree with what they are saying. Your writing style was fine with them before you started questioning.

      One thing that the Tudela's and all of Justin's "side" have always maintained is that no one has been ruled out as a suspect. So you are right everyone should be looked at equally until Ayla is found and that is all that they ask of anyone. Thanks for keeping an open mind.

    Obscure,

    I appreciate the thought.I know its out there.This is my thought...bring it to the light! The only reason it bothers me is that posts are wasted on defending me.I have never in my life had haters...hating me...people who disliked me...never....but I guess we all have to face these things some day.They have every right to feel how they feel and state it. I would rather have that done here than for them to get so filled with their hate that they take it out irl with bats through a window.Its better to be ware of the hate than not. I have been hardened....but forgive me now for those days when emotions just decide to overcome my thoughts. I have my weak moments! ;P

      Posts are not wasted on defending you Selena. As I've said before, I sympathize with your position, and also Phoebe's.

      FWIW, I've also been called names I haven't seen or heard since I used to play canasta on Yahoo. There are some really vulgar people on line. Perhaps that's how they deal with stress in their own lives.

    3. Selena, I think you have been most gracious. I find that I am much more understanding of your position. For myself, the note I posted about you was not hatred for you (as I said in my message to you).

      People do have the right to their opinions, whether they are correct or not. I know exactly what you mean when you say "you have never in your life had haters..." I will join you in saying the same thing for myself. This case has brought out some very strange behavior in everyone (myself included). I'm trying to keep a reasonable reaction to all posters and posts. I will also avoid any threads that just look like trouble. But so far, I feel I have been treated quite fairly by everyone here. I appreciate that. - KJ

    4. The space between, I agree with you. Defending posts are not a waste of time or space. A post in defense of another often shows another side of the coin. - KJ

    5. Well said Space & KJ., and I wholeheartedly agree.

    6. ITA Obscure, space, & m-i-m,

      Posts are definitely not wasted on defending you Selena. Everyone has their own opinions, but there is no need for the hateful comments made to you (or anybody). And they can't always be ignored, hoping that person will go away.

  24. Obscure,
    I know it's been on here several times, but could you post your email again? I wanted to post something but wasn't sure where to put it. Also, I don't want to start anything or be bashed for information that has already been dismissed.
