do any of you remember the rule about playground bullies? if you
ignore them, they will finally go away. they thrive on attention,
any attention, even if it is negative. the more often he sees his
name in print, the bigger his thrill; the more often others see it,
the more often they will remember it, but not necessarily what he had
to say right or wrong. don't all of you get tired of helping this
egomaniac?
to put closure in this matter, does anyone know of any cases that
Connell testified in? if so, please direct me to them as I would
like to see his 'expert' testimony.
