Sorry Joe, but I believe you do owe Ms. Kirkpatrick an apology.  I am an AOL
subscriber and I chatted online with MIATAWOMAN on Friday night.  I have no
doubt that she is real and that the incident with MUDDFLAP is real.  

Coincidentally, I just sent a note to MIATAWOMAN noting that I have not
noticed any postings from MUDDFLAP since subscribing early in April.  I tried
to pull up the member profile on MUDDFLAP and surprisingly, there isn't one.
 That doesn't mean he doesn't exist, but I would take it to mean he doesn't
care to share any information about himself with the masses.

I agree that we should let this one go and resume "normal" list activities.
 I hate to think that there are people out there that lurk around, harrasing
(or whatever you want to call  it), list members on the side.  However,
they've drawn more attention than they deserve already.
