    If Bruce has backed down he hasn't put anything on his blog.

    If this really was Bruce he wouldn't have posted without links to all of his own websites would he?

    It's an imposter...it's Bruce Deuce...

    Bruce is on vacation and has his blog on 'auto update'. I very much doubt he has circulated the above retraction.

    It was probably Tim Langdell attempting to deflect attention away from his situation.

    I just quoted it from the letter in B*uce's post.

    You quoted what LLC demanded Bruce write in a retraction (which he says he won't do)? And you started a new thread about it?

    Am I missing something are you just being an enormous prat here Silvery?

    Silvery - why?

    Silvery's post history has something of a history with Bruce it would seem but an actual why is still lacking...

    I just caught up on that - seriously - what a pretty minded prick. He kind of follows Bruce around, making snarky comments and groaning.

    Silvery - get a life, eh?!

    Bit harsh BOO$$$, maybe?? From what I can tell no-one is having a go at you, what is it that has inflamed you so much to think it's ok to personally insult Silvery, or anyone like that?

    I'm not impressed :(

    In this particular case Silvery has made it look like Bruce did something he did not. That's not on, plain and simple. Furthermore, for what reason - it's not like the post was funny, incisive or even had a point.

    Being called a prick on the internet is hardly in the same league - I know which one I'd be most upset about.

    Yup Silvery is a prick. Ban him.

    If Silvery had somehow posted his original message under the nickname 'Eclectic', I'd be agreeing with you...


    Edited to stop Going-Grey's headache.
