Lisa, I hope you got my instructions on filtering out my emails I wouldnt want them to distress you any longer. 1. You assume the media actually does anything investigative. 2. You made a comment prior to my email about the mismanagement of godaddy which by your assertions was off topic and I mistakenly replied to your comment forgetting you hate me. In context their security manager at one time could not apparently manage simple encryption of his own files so I assume he is not overly security savvy falling them in line with the other folks you don't like at go daddy but my point was invalid because you for whatever reason hate me. In fact I gave you my explination off list but you could not manage to be civil or adult about it so here I am sinking to your level and annoying other nice folks but I can't help myself. 3. covered above. --james On Sun, Jul 3, 2011 at 9:06 PM, Lisa Kachold wrote: > Corrections: > > 1) If he did work there, it was before his indictment, because I find it > very hard to contemplate that the press would not have, in 2008, had a field > day with that employment factiod? > > 2) What possible context, other than gossip, petty prejudice and negatism > could any fact about a child porn trading conviction take? > > 3) Rational discussion of a large local employers change in ownership is > what was invited. > > Please keep your discussion OT James. > > > On Sun, Jul 3, 2011 at 8:40 PM, Lisa Kachold wrote: > >> WAIT! >> >> Why does it not say Paul RICHARD Butts was "Security Manager GoDaddy.com" >> in ANY of the press or public records?
