yeah, I really never get all these repeated implications about james reich being some kind of wash-up or has-been or something - i mean, when has he ever suggested he was famous or a celebrity or whatever at any time? From what's publicly accessible, I know he writes and has a band with his sister - doesn't that describe stuff that a lot of people on this forum do for fun?

I really shouldn't be letting myself get embroiled, but it really is a particularly bizarre intimation you often make and I don't get it. I don't want another ugly and unnecessary flame war starting here and will pull it if it happens, I'm just aggravated. It's one thing to get into a stupid fight and just decide you don't like someone forever and ever afterwards, but it's another thing entirely to keep up this bizarre line of suggestion about that person that doesn't even make sense.
