OK. Definite last words:

If this was KG then it's disappointing, but not as bad as a certain infamous cruelty by another MVP against one of our own. On that occasion, Rod Paddock observed that the true sign of a man's character is what he will do if he thinks he won't be found out. Serious stuff. But time went by and the sound and fury died away as it always does. It'll be even easier this time- pretending to be Grover and calling somebody an ass in a chatter forum isn't exactly the crime of the century. Though the subsequent posturing online might occasion a few cringes.

If this wasn't KG then there has been an injustice. I guess none of us can be sure how we'd handle it until we find ourselves in that situation, but perhaps we can agree that a calm approach to Michel is required- even if he closed his firewall to you arbitrarily as has been suggested. I understand the motivations of those who want to get involved but doing it publicly simply feeds the appetites of those who enjoy this sort of drama. At present I'm one of the feeders, so that's definitely it from me.
"... 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
