Wow! Jbor acknowledges my existence. And there I was thinking this
well-scrubbed day ought to be no worse than any--

I only wish I knew what the hell he's on about, or why I might be
prone to 'conniptions' - a very jbor word, that one - over Doc's dodgy
dealings. We need a toilet bowl scryer here, but failing that, I'd say
it's possible the great Close Reader of Oz is making  oblique
reference to the Zoyd/Van Meter/Snitching thread, where what we found
in the text showed a highly intriguing total lack of supporting
evidence for his 'reading', meaning we heard no more from him on the
matter.
