Theos-Talk Archives (November 2001 Message tt00113)

Eldon,

I think if you were going to remove the messages containing accusations of
dishonesty with regards to Brigitte then you should also consider removing
all the mails with accusations of dishonesty and fraud alleged of HPB. No
doubt these would be a sizeable number if you went back over the years - but
not surprising, given the nature of the tone of many of the transactions on
this list.

...Peter
