As far as most issues are concerned, the details about person stating a =
position may not always be relevant.

If Edna Wilmington is a real person of the same name, that is fine.  =
However, I have been informed that searches through various world-wide =
and local data-bases reveal no one who would fit.  It is always possible =
that "Edna" has escaped entry into these data-bases.  It seems at this =
point more probable than not that "Edna" is an alias for a person or =
group of persons.  Being open about one's identity encourages the taking =
seriously the message conveyed.  Those ashamed to sign their own real =
name(s) justifiably raise the question "Why?"  The answers that an =
uninformed person might speculate for that questions are often not nice. =
 There are several people who habitually do not sign their name on this =
forum.  I set the spam filter to ding them out unread.

Maybe "Edna" can give some verifiable evidence of her/his/their reality.

  Yipes. Wrong. I am not Edna Wilmington. Nor do I pose as Edna on =
vision 2020. I only use her to buy beer for me. Oooops. But I would like =
to say to Edna, whoever you are, courage brave soul.

    Ms. Wilmington:
    Your writing style is so remarkably similar to Ben Merkle that I am =
wondering if you are his alter-ego - his feminine side, perhaps?  Or, =
maybe you were/are educated either at Logos or New St. Andrews.  Why =
don't you tell us a little about yourself?
    Best,
    Rose Huskey
