John H. Gohde is a Private Person
I am not a famous person. Nor, have I ever been the center of attention in the news media. My private life is, thus, private.
I do not need any backseat drivers criticizing what I have written in the past. I am true to myself. You can never please everybody all the time, so I try to please myself most of the time on these Internet forums. I did things my way. Whether or not, I should have or could have handled certain situations better is totally besides the point.
What I, or anybody else, does in their own private life is none of anyone else’s business. And, YES, that means YOU. The world would be a much friendlier place if busybodies would kindly get a life of their own. And, start minding their own business.
You do NOT like what I wrote some four years ago, or yesterday? Or, more probably what you think that I have written? Well, that is just plain tough!
Try reading what I actually wrote. Try reading the entire thread, before passing judgment. Try reading the entire posting history of the specific individuals that I have replied to. Just try to promote alternative medicine, or any other topic on any newsgroup, while being a doormat. It just is NOT possible.

I am anything, but ugly. In fact, I have been known to make a few females jump six inches off the floor upon meeting charming me.
It is physically impossible to disrupt an Internet community of ugly trolls, kooks, whack-jobs, and spammers. In fact, I dispute even the notion that an Internet virtual world could ever form anything remotely resembling a community, unless of course you happen to be mentally ill, like the Hate Blogger obviously is.
Just thought that the Hate Blogger might want to know.

Great! Thank you!
I always wanted to write in my blog something like that. Can I take part of your post to my blog?
Of course, I will add backlink?
