If anyone is concerned about something posted on WP, please contact a Moderator.
See this thread for ways of doing that: http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt158661.html
I'm locking this thread because it's not acceptable for any member to attack another member, directly or otherwise - and that includes accusations of trolling.
Neither is it acceptable to hold a group discussion about the merit of a another member's contributions or their motives for making them.
