Leave me out of this

[Tim Strzechowski]

I'm just an observer in all this, but I got the impression that Robert was 
the culprit when a) Prof. Krafft specifically cited jbor's previous post in 
his original message yesterday, and b) jbor immediately told us how he had 
contacted Krafft offlist, etc. (which sounded to me like he was covering his 
tracks, but ...).

If David "Ghetta" Morris is indeed the culprit (which I doubt), shame on 
him.  But I suspect, based on the correspondances here, it was Robert.

Regardless of who it was, it's unfortunate that a confidence was broken and 
misinformation was deliberately given out, all in the name of fueling the 
Pynchon-L gossip machine.  Innocent academics need not be pulled into this 
List's shitstorms.  It's too bad Ghetta's "heavens to Betsy" comments this 
morning again illustrate how little he gives a shit about anyone else's 
position or credibility, even Prof. Krafft's.  Sad, really ...
