Fw: Moderated alternative

I understood at first that Martin Hollick's message was a private one and
replied to him. As he has sent the message to the group as well, not much
privacy is left, and here is my reply to him..

Dear Martin,
In July this year I had a book come out, the main part medieval
biographies, obtainable through Heraldry Today in England.
Guess who has an acknowledgement in it? Douglas Richardson!!

Richardson is a cancer to Gen-Med and, possibly, he can restrain himself
if he sees that enough people do not appreciate his behaviour. Yes.
Gen-Med has always been volatile, even before Richardson joined in.
However, Richardson has been the start and the continuation of almost
(probably) all flame wars ever since his joining.

If he could start answering questions, of course, he can add his own to
it, but his avoidance of answers has gone on for too long. I see no
redeeming aspects in his behaviour.
Leo

Blatantly untrue pertains to the person's statement that he has "a
policy of not acknowledging directly assistance." He does acknowledge
(at least) some people.

Insofar as Peter Stewart is concerned, if he treated me like he treats
Doug Richardson, I wouldn't acknowledge his existence, let alone his
help (if any was in fact given).

The bunch of you and your postings show that you all have the emotional
state of a class of 8 year olds. If SGM dies out, it won't be Doug
Richardson's fault. There will be plenty of blame for all.

And BTW, was SGM ever good to begin with? I've seen spatterings of
useful information, but truth be told, it's alot of sound and fury
without much substance.

Dear Martin,
Just because he acknowledged you in one book, doesn't make it
"blatantly untrue".

In his Plantagenet Ancestry he thanks:
David Faris, Judith Osborn, Michael Welch of California, Barbara Wright
and his six children.
(By the way, why not his wife?) and then Maryan Egan-Baker, Warren
Bitner, Mitchell Call, Richard Hansen, Marshall Kirk, Marlyn Lewis,
David Nelson, Chris Phillips, John Ravilious, Gary Boyd Roberts and
Renia Simonds. Then a repeat of his daughters (who produced an
outstanding index) Don Stone, Kimball G. Everingham, Warren Page and
lastly Steven Peterson.

I am sure several, including Peter Stewart, have been left out.
Best wishes
Leo van de Pas

"You refuse to acknowledge receipt on GEN-MED and doubtless you will
continue your
policy of not acknowledging (directly) assistance in any future issues
of your error ridden books."

Dear Tony:

That statement is blatantly untrue. He certainly acknowledged my
work
in MCA on p. 783.

I'm sorry, I'm using Google groups, and your message showed up on that
as well as a private email. I apologize if I transgressed in making
something public that ought to have been private.

Publicly--again, I congratulate you on your book, Saints and Sinners.

No offense taken, just my confusion.
