I have done something tonight I thought I'd never do here: locked a thread, and banned a member. I'd like to think I'm not at all heavy-handed when it comes to running this forum. In the many years I've been around MWF, we've been a self-policing bunch. I'm more than a bit surprised at the recent turn of events.
Doctor Allen has been banned from this forum. I don't anticipate letting him back in any time soon.
In a PM, he threatened to "bring this forum to its knees." He's changed his registered email address to a throw-away, but I've reported that address and his IP addresses to my host, in case anything happens.
We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.
