nono (and others that followed this):

Yes, I did visit the GL site today and noticed the comment left by the user N.  I posted (anonymously) the posting that nono2sco quoted.  As others have noted, I guess pointing out N.'s use of name-calling as an attempted debate technique is considered "rude".  And yes, I did sign it with my real name and an indication that I am the site owner of ip-wars.net.  I did this to retain copyright and try to establish who was writing the response.  I guess that was considered  "advertising".  I leave it to you, the readers, to decide whether PJ's characterization is reasonable.

Anyway, a few hours after posting, I noticed the comment I left had been deleted (or hidden - and since part of it was recoverable, I have to guess hidden).  However, N.'s comment, including the incorrect accusation, was still intact.  So, I sent the following e-mail:

From: Jeff Causey <jcausey@ip-wars.net>
To:     pj@groklaw.net

Pamela,

Recently while viewing comments on your groklaw.net website, I ran across the following post:

http://www.groklaw.net/comment.php?mode=display&sid=2004112605020534&title=But+the+feedback+ is+%26quot%3BNasty%26quot%3B&type=article&order=&hideanonymous=0&pid=243253#c243265

made by a user with the username N.  Within the body of the posting, this user made the statement:

"he makes a substantial amount of income from Microsoft-based systems"

I attempted to post a correction to this statement (as I am the webmaster he is referring to) on your site, which is factually incorrect as I have not only not made "substantial" income from Microsoft-based systems, I have made NO income from Microsoft-based systems.
Unfortunately, it seems my correction has been deleted or hidden from view.

Therefore, I respectfully ask that you either, as owner of the groklaw.net web site, remove the post indicated above or post a correction as a reply to the above indicated comment.  If you choose the second option of posting a reply, I'm not interested in anything being addressed other than the factually incorrect statement "he makes a substantial amount of income from Microsoft-based systems".

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

P.S. - Please be aware of the following information regarding e-mails to this account:

I reserve the right to use any e-mail you send to me as either a testimonial of how great ip-wars.net is or me personally, or as evidence of some of the stupid stuff sent to me via e-mail. If you do not want your e-mail to be used in such a manner, don't send it!!!

If you would like to respond to a different e-mail account to protect your response, please visit www.zenshin-consulting.com and you can find one there.

As you can see, the posting of the correction was at my request and I appreciate her taking care of that.  Again, her choice as to how to portray the rest of my post says more about her than it does about me.

Jeff
