I don't have the slightest partisan interest in this matter. I'm not selling a journal. There is no one "I am against" - I know no one on this list personally. I'd really love to give a close reading of your posts - the little words like "patent" which do so much and the J'Accuse emotive style (get that language "smear"/"court"/"libel" etc.). Really quite a gas - and well done, I must admit - if rather chilling. But I'm sure many are doing that sort of reading anyway and coming to similar conclusions as my own...
