What is the point of refuting a claim made by a poster who no longer
posts in this group? Is there some strange MVP time machine we don't
know about or something?
And if he is going to "refute a claim" as you put it, why would the OP
not reply to a post that made that claim?
So if as you claim, he is refuting a claim which has not been made in
this group recently by a poster who doesn't post here anymore...
Still none of this explains away or justifies why he is posting about a
subject that he had through mob action with other posters harassed
another poster out of the group for.

If you are going to respond to my posts, please have the courtesy to
