just for clarification's sake, Radio man, do you also go by "Peabody" or is that someone else- as in not an alter ego, but an altogether different person?
You lost me with the first few paragraphs. I don't see anything about the family's warped reasoning and how a person posts here.
Where it gets confusing for me is when there are differences of opinion on a topic and someone uses a number of different names to discuss within the same thread. Or there are a bunch of different anonymous names. I am writing as myself here. Don't expect the same from others. But at least others know where I am coming from when they post.
I don't have a problem with people using anonymous handles, there is just no way to expect someone to know any person's opinions or thoughts when a post goes up under another new moniker.
I am glad Don Lattin is writing a book too, I think. I'll have to check it out at the library first and read it but hopefully he will do the subject justice.If I think he does then I might buy it.
Anyone have any idea when it is scheduled to come out?
