I see your point. If I didn't, I would be wishing I had posted the actual text since it is different today again. Nothing in this world is static, that is for sure!

It may well be true that this has been declared to stir trouble- after all, articles written in the 1990s are unlikely to make sales. But the snide comment on Fox wiki (a venue that JVP is not supposed to visit) and elsewhere, seems equally designed to cause trouble.

These spats *always* seem to involve a small minority, some of whom delight in blaming UT for the trouble in which they themselves always seem to be involved. IMHO we should leave it between these Titans and whatever value they see in long-standing grudges. Personally I'm not interested in articles written a decade ago, except possibly for historic curiosity for which I probably wouldn't agree to pay $. So who cares what comes of it.

>IMHO we need to watch for people bringing trouble to UT. I don't mean you, I mean the people who seem to be involved in almost all of the trouble in the community. Rather than joining in, we should look to see where it comes from. If it becomes obvious that there really is/are center/s of negative energy(!) then we should roll our eyes and ignore it. Then the UT can go back to being an excellent technical board with a chatter forum for people to drop by for a LOL rather than a politically inspired transplant spat.
