| A glance at my talk page or history would show that I'm far from new here...and my contempt for the Wikipolicy of demanding "sources" for information that can be found all over the place,the designation of any particular publication as "source" being misleading and arbitrary,is extremely deep-seated.I care that facts are up-to-date,not that footnotes are filled out;if you spot a change and wonder about it,just pop keywords into Google News,for example.There's no room for doubting the news about Cimmino or Mount Vernon.--L.E./I wish they still let me post my email address before triggering things the only browser I'll edit from can't handle/] (]) 16:53, 19 March 2012 (UTC) | |||
| :No, Mr. Epstein. Shame on ''you'' for reacting this way to a standard request that you follow policy (a responsibility with which you're familiar and choose to ignore) and demanding that others do your work for you. That you have "contempt" for our policies (as well as the normal conventions of written English) is a problem, ''not'' an excuse. Either abide by Misplaced Pages's rules or stop editing. —] 17:09, 19 March 2012 (UTC) | |||

| :::"Pretty much" doesn't cut it. Whether you edit one page per minute or one page per year, you're required to abide by Misplaced Pages's rules. If you continue to "attack" them, your editing will be stopped completely (until such time as you agree to cease the "attack"). Consider this your final warning. —] 06:50, 20 March 2012 (UTC) | |||

This IP address is assigned to the main server of Putnam Internet Services,an ISP on the same premises as Pragmatic Patents & Industries (which pays for the upstream connection,is formally allocated the IP block,and is owned by the family of Putnam Internet's owner,Louis Epstein).Only Mr. Epstein has ever used it to edit Misplaced Pages.
There's nothing left to discuss here! Move along...the user did!--12.144.5.2 01:11, 2 January 2006 (UTC) (The above link led to a page detailing Mr. Epstein's reasons for abandoning and denouncing Misplaced Pages,until the Administrator "Stephen" deleted it as "housecleaning" a year and a half later).--L.E./12.144.5.2 (talk) 01:35, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
