To All: This week on SI, one of my long-term message board adversaries (Lee Lichterman) chose to post a link on the SI CFZ thread in a response to a request by Vitas (another long-term adversary) that pointed to some of my personal information. I was not aware this information was public. It has since been removed, however the cat is out of the bag.
While I have had an ongoing feud with Lucretius and MythMan for years, even they had not stoop that low, although I am sure they are getting a kick out of the development. In fact, over the years my feud with the Luc and MythMan on SI has never resulted in even one harsh pmail or email between us. Everything has always been communicated in the public arena. However, Lee Lichterman took his online disdain for me to a new low.
As you all know I mentioned publicly on this thread a few months ago, I had decided to not build a new MDA web site, so I recently removed the links to the site from my online profiles. I did not realize that domain name registration information is made public. The personal information has since been removed.
Posting a link that provided personal information on a very wide read public message board pointed all the crazies on the net to that information that did not know how to obtain it otherwise. In the recent past, Lee has threatened me with physical harm and Vitas is on a crusade about a trade I made in Sept of 2001. Yesterday, Lee claimed on his web site to have had Air Force or ex Air Force buddies help him obtain my home address, private telephone numbers and vehicle license plates as he was planning on paying me a visit last summer. He was not planning on shaking my hand.
Over the years I have shared some of the posts made by both of these guys on Silicon Investors as well posts by others hurling insults and ridicule my way with my wife. She could never understand why I continued to participate on the boards. About a year and a half ago, I received several emails threatening to kill my family and me. It was from someone that reads and or participates on the message boards as he or she referenced my then active MDA Web Site and my posts on SI. I shared the emails with SI Jeff. While Jeff and I have our major differences, he did step in and do what he could to help.
This concerned my wife a great deal. At that time she asked me to stop posting on the message boards. I did reduce my posting and tried to ignore the ongoing barrage of insults and ridicule hurled my way. Unfortunately for me, ignoring insults and ridicule has never been one of my strong suits.
Because of the public linking to my personal information, I have had to change one of my phone numbers, PO Box and will shortly be changing the email address revealed. Obviously I had to apprise my wife of the developments. She is not very happy and is very concerned. She considers Lee and Vitas a threat. With the dissemination of some of our personal information she feels we are now at an increased risk from unknowns.
Fortunately my wife recently moved to her new building which has a new security system complete with security doors. As mentioned on this thread, I have been looking for a new residence in town, which is where I trade from. Hopefully, that will happen within the next 60 days. While I am not afraid of Vitas or Lee my wife is, she sees their relentless vendettas as extremely troubling behavior. I would never forgive myself if something happened to my wife or family because I would not stop my participation on these public message boards. I am going to be sitting down with local law enforcement officers to apprise them of the recent developments just in case something does happen.
Due to the above-mentioned developments and out of respect and concern for my wife and family I will be dramatically reducing my public posting on any and all public message boards. I will still drop in on this thread, but on a very limited basis.
I want to give a special thanks to augieboo for his participation and assistance on this thread. It truly has become his thread. If anyone wished to communicate with me, feel free to email me using the email address in my IHub profile.
I also want to thank the many individuals I have communicated with over the years that HAVE made the online financial message board experience fun and profitable. However, because of the individuals with long-term LG vendettas the message board experience has finally stopped being fun for me.
Good trading all...
Best Regards,
LG
