I find it very interesting that ... this post was made to the Lyst at the exact moment when many of us are off to MediaWest
I can assure you that the timing is coincidental. To those of us in the UK unlucky enough not to be able to attend MediaWest, its dates don't perhaps assume the importance that they should.
I can't comment on the other points, other than to say, I don't in any way condone what's happened to you, Annie, or any others hurt by the fall-out of this affair. I just believe that, in view of the seriousness of the accusations, it is wise to ensure that the true culprit is blamed. As Sarah eloquently pointed out, the consequences could be highly detrimental to Fiona Moore's career.
I can only reiterate, I'm acting in good faith; I'm not an associate of anyone else, on this Lyst or elsewhere; in the past several years I've posted to electronic mailing lists only from the present e-mail address; I've never met Fiona Moore; I've never corresponded with 'Jenny Kaye' except on this Lyst.
And, while I am based in the UK, those more versed in UK university politics than I should be able to assure you that I'm the *other* shade of blue from Fiona....
