the funny thing is...look at the last name on that letter. its the same one as someone who designs local websites. no doubt the times board going down is a potential boon to local competitors lol.

i dont disagree with what the letter states, calling for more scrutiny of posts harsher penalties for blatent violators of rules etc. however its not as if this was john q public authoring it either.

Do you suppose that letter writer is related to Ray Escamilla, who runs mcmayor's campaign website and is also paid the keep the city's website updated?

Judging by this letter she wrote to the Times bashing the Mayor, I think that is unlikely.

What YOU posted about Dan Klein in the last several days was far more abusive than what I ever write You came back later and changed it to nonsense by substituting my username for the term for a male body part that your original post contained Should I take that as yet another insult friom you? I forgot about you posting your wish in the past couple of days that I die. Yeah, you're the right person to comment on another poster being banned!
