I apologize for my part in that, although the information I posted is a matter of public record that anyone who posts a website URL is making available. Considering the OP was using said web site to harvest the IP’s of posters here and publish them here it seemed appropriate at the time. ---

**Vahid Tarzan** , just one thing before you’re banned: A week from now, not a single person on this board will remember you. We get your type all the time, and you simply aren’t interesting enough to stand out. ---

Not sure what the 909 inferrence was about since the info is missing. We are no longer in SoCal, pretty sure mods know that. I mentioned in another thread I travel, hence my IP and area code would not be SoCal. I could be right outside your house. 🙂 My last thread: Homosexuality ~ A mod name tomdebb, closed because no links were posted. I had no idea this was necessary to win a debate. Logical should take the place of any link. In fact, where is this board’s definition of trolling? I cannot find it posted. Did Tomdebb close my thread for personal reasons? I realize I’m confrontational, however, in most cases my threads get hit with a hail of snide remarks and laughter… Not that I mind, makes my job easier. My job, is shoveling up the truth to an otherwise overwhelmingly prejudice subject matter. ---
