A belated thank you, Tor -- however, the burden of proof rightfully lies with Luke. Further, I have a room in my house to clean out after a catastrophic roof leak (not to mention an impending fight with insurance, which I'm most certainly not looking forward to), and a doctor's appointment on Friday to discuss the limp I've given myself in that now weeks-long process. I don't have the time -- nor do I have the inclination -- to sift and sort and filter through ten plus years of electronic conversation to prove myself wrong.
As such, my request stands -- Luke, and specifically /only/ Luke (unless he appoints someone to his defense), when you have time, please present at least a few messages (or chains thereof) from which a case in your favor can be made. In the meantime, I'd ask what under the law would be called a "stay of execution" (pausing the clock) on banning Ron. No, I can't /force/ it, but it's the right thing to do during the controversy, which is why I'm /requesting/ it.
