The post was one of the many times he called me a liar [not quoted above]

Scott,

You, of all people, should not point out the shortcoming of others with
regard to "justifying or retracting the statement" when found in error.

That's from one concerned patron to another.

We have to stop this.  I mean, it's like "Oh, he used to pee his pants!  We
should shun him!!"  Well, yeah, like when I was 4 months old.  Dredging up
old issues--the horse is suitably flogged and dead--lets get beyond it.

You both felt justified with what you did--does it matter *today*?--it's
'water under the bridge'.  Larry is doing his personal best *today* to make
LUGNET a good place for FOLs, and I would like to say the same about you,
Scott--let us all work for the betterment of ot-d and LUGNET *today*.

I'm just saying... :)
