Who do you claim has stalked and harangued Sauer and Ceppa? Those two and
their friends went into other echoes trying to get us all in here so they
and the rest of the clowns who were here could attack and ridicule us for
believing differently than they do. Don't give us the nonsense about those
two being stalked or harangued because you know different. Or at least you
should.
