On Anonymous Comments

When I made the decision to start blogging, I decided to do it under my own name. It limits what I can do/write about . . . in other words, I can't come home from work and put the day up on the blog (but that's not why I'm here).

It also keeps me honest . . . and (I think) real.

On the advice of another local blogger, I recently opened the blog to anonymous comments on a trial basis. He warned me that I'd have to Teflon up and hold my tongue. I still moderate. All new comments come to my Inbox. Nothing goes up unless I approve it. Nasties will not be posted.

Two were moderated out tonight. But I am saving them in a file. And (fair warning), as "Dr. Flea" learned the hard way not so very long ago, just because you think you're anonymous doesn't mean that you are - especially if you are blogging/posting from your place of work.

But you know, sometimes the courageous anons can be helpful. They can really motivate you to move and grow out of your technological comfort zone.

In one of the comments moderated out, the question (after the "LOL!" personal slam) was, "You keep saying Bob and Steve lied.... How do we know that YOU aren't lying?".

Of course, it's been covered. But I'm thinking maybe I do need to go ahead and post "Shalala" in its entirety . . . followed by letters (previously cited in recent narratives) written to JCAHO by Drs. Laurie Anderson and Nancy Toy testifying to its veracity.

Oh, and don't let the fact that the Federal government took action against RMA (too little, too late - but action nonetheless) based on what was in that complaint . . . or that Randolph Hospital ultimately RAN from its own "libel" lawsuit (based on "Shalala") . . . influence you at all.

Once Shalala is up, I need to learn how to scan and post original discovery documents to A White Wall so I can link them here.

Then I can avoid the numb fingers and the typos.

And then the anon could see for him/herself that Bob and Steve lied.

Perjury (a Felony - multiple counts). Contempt. Fraud.

You could call it "Lies in Black and White".

Still mulling it all over. Meanwhile, still working on "Part Three".
