MK:  He lost his aznet account over that activity.

BK:  So you allege.  Lost perhaps, but because of that?

Alleged cancels from the AZNET account were in July 1997.

AZNET writes the following to EHW in OCTOBER 1997:

      After giving you every opportunity to let
      the controversial threads subside, I am
      resigned to the fact that you are and will
      always be abrasive....

Edmond H. Wollmann (EHW) was dismissed from AZNET [an Internet Service Provider (ISP)]
allegedly for being "abrasive" in October, but nothing about cancels in July.  If Matt Kriebel were
correct, then EHW would have lost his account in July, not October.

END OF QUOTES FROM WOLLMANN SITE.   Note, not one word about his account
being cut off because of WOLLMANN CANCELLING POSTS.  Here is another example
of CENSORING BIGOTS, and what they do on the INTERNET.  Thank you for
having me dig this up, Matt Kriebel.

Even though the cancels alleged on my web page are not
yet conclusively proven, there is proof of many of the
other items (13 total) I have documented links (proofs)
of.

Let's look at some of these posts allegedly cancelled by Wollmann.

Are you going to tell me Wollmann cares about posts in the above newsgroups?  His concern is
astrology, primarily.

When has EHW complained about posts in the above newsgroups, without an
astrology NG crosspost?

************************************************************************

BK:
No, these are "rogue" cancels, and EHW is the likely scapegoat
identification placed.  He's an easy target for rogue cancellers,
because he posts so much in NEWS ADMIN NET-ABUSE USENET
(NANAU).

Forgeries allegedly from EHW once were abundant in the USENET archives (until EHW cancelled
them).  The above, alleged, cancel of EHW is ridiculous.  The above newsgroups are typical targets
of "rogue" cancellers.  To assume EHW would cancel posts to the above newsgroups is ridiculous.

EHW has written quite a few times about other alleged posts from himself, that they were forgeries,
and it was quite apparent upon careful examination that they were forgeries.

************************************************************************************

People writing to USENET that alleged EHW posts are all really from him
are naive, or blatant liars.  I don't know how many of those on the
Wollmann defamation site are forgeries.

Just today I read a quoted post from the site that people PARROT from.
It was out of context.  I answered that all one had to do was read my site,
and see that the quote, in context, showed no violent threats from
EHW.

BK comment:  A number of forgeries have appeared
                        in the newsgroups, posts allegedly from
                        EHW.  That casts some doubt regarding
                        the quotes shown, which follow

MK:  ...poor innocent Wollmann, victim of
         terrorism (snort) After all, Wollman
         never said...

      "Remove your defamation or I'll walk
       down there and yank it off" _wollman_

BK:  Many statements of EHW have been called threats
       of physical violence, but when taken in context
       show entirely different.  I have a quote on my web
       site from PSF, which when magnified show it did
       not mean what had been alleged.

     Other alleged statements of EHW never were said,
     since there have been so many forgeries in the
     Newsgroups.

EHW:  ...kick the f**k out of you, talk like
           this-AND STILL post something of value"

MK:  Say that sounds kinda threatin...

BK:  Actually, not threatening.  However, the quotes from
        certain PSF linked from the above referenced Web
        page are definately threatening.  The only threatening
        thing about EHW, actually, to the PSF is that he *does*
        post valuable information, he is intelligent, and he
        writes about astrology credibly.

     He kicks a*s in debates all the time.  That's threatening.

     Another thing is that he will not let you people take over
     the Internet, with him lying down, while you walk all over
     every proponent who is demanding, and others who will
     demand the freedom they are entitled to.

EHW: "I will STAY and send 100,000 complaints
          to every insitution (sic) on the planet
          and more if action is not taken."

BK:  If a policeman threatens a criminal with a gun, to cease
        his criminal act, that is not wrong.  The wrong act is
       of the criminal.  The person threatening to defend themself
       has that right.  If EHW threatens 100,000 complaints, and
       if the complaints are legitimate, as I see they actually are,
       then what's the problem?

MK: Hmmm sounds kind of like blackmail there...

BK: Nope

EHW:  "I WILL GO IN PERSON AND TAKE ALL LEGAL, ETHICAL,
            AND MATERIAL ACTION I CAN"

MK:  Whao! harsh out Wollman!

BK:  You seem to have problems with rational interpretation,
         and rational thought, or telling the truth.

MK quoting EHW:   "8000 complaints lined up."

MK:  Don't worry, Kettler still likes you.

BK:  Sarcasm, from you, says nothing rational.

EHW:  ...complaints to all state agencies sent for
           stalking an harassment."

BK:   And, are you saying, PSF don't stalk and harass?
          Since this is their habit, and has been for decades,
          what's wrong with a million complaints?

BK:  Wow, threatening people with a gov't agency.
          Nothig came of this, aren't there laws about
          that?

BK:  I will threaten anyone with a government agency if
        the person is breaking the law in their actions against
        me.  No-one can rightly fault me, or call me a censor,
        or terrorist for that.

EHW allegedly:  "Complaints for threatening violence
         and abuse sent to FBI. "

BK: Did he write that, or any of the other things I quote, here
       from you?  I know of some of it, but I'm not sure of all
       that you quote.

      Still, it does not prove anything, what you quote.

MK:  Well. lots of efforts at intimidation and blackmail...

BK:  You deny that PSEUDO-SKEPTIC-FANATICS
         are the TERRORISTS, and PROPONENTS LIKE
         WOLLMANN ARE DEFENDING THEMSELVES.
