Oh crumbs, Bill,

of course I'm impatient.

Who wouldn't be, when you allow your own pain to get in the way of the
clarity with which you respond to other peoples' material on the topic you
raised?
Who wouldn't be, when the other correspondents go off on an intellectual
tangent about "truth" because they're too bloody embarassed (or, sure, just
conceivably. maybe, possibly, I dunno, _guilty_) to address the issues you
raise?

Okay, I take your point. Having expressed my pissed-off frustration with
the thread, it's time I was constructive. You say

Would it be possible, d'you think, to explain how the "bandwaggon had
destroyed" your career? I realise that the kind of evidence which
establishes a solid case beyond the bounds of litigation may be difficult
to marshal in a written medium, and only you can judge whether it's
possible to put together a case which would illuminate the issue.

If it isn't, and you nevertheless continue to believe they did you wrong,
why on earth continue to care about the Kellians? Why not write us all off
as shits and abandon us as a reference group? Why cause yourself more pain
by continuing to care about what we think?

Kindest regards,

Devi
