Bob, here is the statement, snipped from theforge archives ....

As written it's a statement of action taken  i.e. "...to illegally dump him 
..."

Bob, no matter how many times you read it you won't find the word "attempt" 
in the posting.  You can find the original in the archives of TheForge at 
<http://mailman.qth.net/pipermail/theforge/>

The posting said that an action was taken.  I challenged that.  I was well 
within my rights to do so.  The action did not happen as represented 
(whether intentionally or unintentionally) and needed correction to keep 
accurate facts on the table.

I don't understand why wanting accuracy in this matter isn't a good idea.
