Not asking for a thing from you....don't need a thing....OK... then don't check out Message #
683146 ... from 2002, after he had suddenly reappeared as a MVP.
If you are tempted to claim that the post doesn't contain the allegations I reported, you *know* I have another lined up- and if you demand it, it'll be an own-goal. ;-)
Lets drop this. I've said earlier that some of JVP's contributions were great. If we could be sure that's how it's going to be, I'd happily do whatever possible to bring him back.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
