>>>What nonsense is this! So now John Koziol will gonna reveal to you things that apparently can't be said in public? Can I be added to the list of trusted persons please?
>>
>>Peter, does it even occur to you that Mike and John actually know each other and have been friends for 20 years?

>Is it important to know this in this context? I don't think so. The effect of the statement that John made here (go back some messages) is that AK/MA are excused and that they are only still accused by those who do not know the whole story from inside. This kind of defense of them is unfair. The arguments must be in the open, or they must not be used or mentioned or referred to.
I understand your position that you are involved and part of anything you choose to be involved or part of and you are entitled to feel that way, but you should understand that others do not feel obligated to include you in everything to which you feel a right to be included. Just different perceptions. People will continue to communicate and share information privately with people they know and trust, even if it bothers you to know they are doing it.
Charles Hankey
Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
