Public letter to Steven Black

Author: Garrett Fitzgerald

Posted: 2007-10-23 16:32:33   Link

"You know, looking quickly at my tallies, which might or might not be accurate,

I see that since November 1999 you've received, from me, for free (no donations,

no contacts, nothing that I can recall) -- free hosting of the

"GarrettFitzgerald" article on the FoxPro Wiki..."

Oh, don't worry, Steve, you won't have to host my content any longer.

I humbly apologize for having committed the sin of not-voting to

delete an article that I didn't know you had created on Wikipedia, and

then change my !vote to neutral, as I agreed that it had been

nominated way too early.

I'll be removing all my contributions I can find from the Fox Wiki

shortly, so I won't be taking up your valuable bandwidth in the

future.

Are we supposed to know what this is about? I can't see anything on

the Wiki or SB's site...

Hi John!

Steve has made something of a name for himself by extended participation in

flame wars. These may still be on the archives. Here's a sample thread:

Sorry, I was too mad to post straight.

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Lake_Ontario_Waterkeeper>

<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:SarekOfVulcan&diff=166526164&oldid=165980029>

<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&offset=20071023161755&limit=100&target=StevenBlack>

What really set me off, though, was the personal email I quoted from

in my first mail, where he talked about the "free hosting of the

GarrettFitzgerald article" on fox.wikis.com, pointed out that it was

the first hit when you Googled "Garrett Fitzgerald FoxPro", asked me

what I had done for him lately, accused me of lying about not being

logged in to my Unix Shell account where I get most of my non-list

mail, and stated that he had never before been abused as he had been

here. I invite any interested parties to compare his contribution list

to mine (<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/SarekOfVulcan>)

and see if his accusations of "bullying" and "abuse" are accurate.

Pat.

My advice: Shrug it off and hum a tune, any tune.

But, if you must keep on torturing yourself, tell me, ...

How long have you been smooching off Steve?

ROTFL!!!!!!!!!!!! ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

Change Faustus's "Earth!!! Gape!!!

With:

Madness! Be gone!

ROTFL!!!!!!!!!!!! ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

Oh please choose the sheep. Talk about making a name for yourself (and

not in a good way).
