He may have posted on this site in the past but we are dealing with NOW. As things now stand, would he feel comfortable in doing so? As far as the "damned if you don't" - it isn't so much that we would necessarily "damn" him, it is what HE, in this situation, might think. One other thing I didn't mention was, the spamming, if you will, of all the uncalled for emails from all of us, if we responded. If it were me, it might inflate my ego for about 2 seconds and then I would be irritated by all the emails I would have to delete or feel obliged to answer.
