Thanks, Rex. Flattery from you is the most one can hope for.
Yesterday a friend sent me the following E-mail:
===
This vile message was received this morning. Someone out there is a
psychopath and he is targeting you.
Perhaps the culprit is someone so consumed by jealousy that he would do
anything to destroy you and your reputation.
I think something should be done about this, but what I have in mind is
not legal.

Your message in this thread defended me rather effectively. And speaking of
"digging dirt using 10-year-old material", fortunately I have no public
material going to the age of 14. But, just like you, back in 2003, I
bothered to use my Palm with some keyboard to write a comprehensive bio,
while on the plane. It's not public though. And between the abuse and fan
mail (from other communities too) I come to realise that PJ's anonymity was
probably a positive thing. Last night she commented on the interview for
CBS, especially on the subject of notoriety.

Worth reading. It's not very long.
