Have a good life. Best regards, Pete

Mike the blog “owner” does understand how to get the details that I have asked for, as can be seen on his http://watchingthedeniers.wordpress.com/2011/02/26/pete-ridleyfsmail-net-is-the-presumed-cyberstalker/#comment-3685 thread.

You’ll have more important things to address than this so let’s drop it, but I am still puzzled by your apparent disinterest in the CACC issue.

Best regards, Pete.

Lots of passion in your statement. First, I moved your comment to the post which prompted you to write in the first place; that made more sense than putting it on my newer post.

Let’s address the part about the fake comment in your name. Since the blog you commented on is a WordPress blog (I did go take a look), the author should know that all he has to do is check the IP address of that comment against the IP address your email usually comes from. They would have to be different if you didn’t do it. That’s how I can verify, and others that have WordPress blogs, a comment that seems a bit off from someone we’re familiar with. It seems he’s familiar with you, and he mentions IP address, so that either means he didn’t pay attention to the difference because he was too mad or he was looking for a reason to remove you from his blog and doesn’t care about the truth.

Unfortunately, you don’t really have a recourse here. There’s no “right” to being allowed to comment on someone’s blog, and you’d have to prove it was him who posted the comment in your name to be able to do anything about it at all. If it were me, I’d write about what happened on my own blog, then move on. I don’t stay where people don’t want me.

I’m sorry that my comment has nothing to do with the topic in this article but I couldn’t find an appropriate recent one. I was delighted to come across your Aug 22, 2009 “Bloggers Can’t Hide Behind Fake Names Anymore And Defame Others” thread (http://www.imjustsharing.com/bloggers-cant-hide-behind-fake-names-anymore-and-defame-others/).

I was doing an update to a document about an Australian coward (John Byatt) who, from behind the “obscurity” of the false name “cooloola”, hurled insults at anyone who dared to express sceptical opinions in the blogosphere about the UN-inspired propaganda of Catastrophic Anthropogenic Climate Change (CACC). He did this in collaboration with two other Austrlians, one named Ross Brisbane (AKA DigitalAdvisor/ConcernedCitizen) who can be excused a little because of personal problems and another equally vicious individual (who used Spatch/Phoenix/Guess-who/etc. and impersonated LordMonckton/Colin/PeggyB/Stormboy and Pete Ridley). I, PeggyB, Colin and Phil(AKA Stormboy) had numerous exchanges during 2009-2010 with those three on the blog of Australian Senator Steve Fielding’s blog as well as on US science student Chris Colose’s “Richard Alley at AGU 2009: The Biggest Control Knob” (http://chriscolose.wordpress.com/2009/12/18/richard-alley-at-agu-2009-the-biggest-control-knob/). An excellent debate was ruined there as a result of one or more of those “three stoogies” impersonating others.

I am currently trying to get an information manager called Mike, who works for a large professional services firm in Melbourne, Australia, to give me the full details (full text, E-mail and IP-addresses) of the comment that he claims was submitted under my name to his WatchingtheDeniers blog. That comment likened him to a paedophile (see the 6th Feb. comment from Watching the Deniers @ 02:47:45 in http://watchingthedeniers.wordpress.com/2011/02/05/pete-ridely-banned/#comment-3165). Mike has so far refused to provide those details while insisting that I had sent it (which I had not) so I have given him until 6th March, otherwise I shall be complaining to the local (UK) police about his Internet libel rather than my preferred complant against the childish and cowardly person who impersonated me. My only concern is that it will be of no interest to the police and I’ll be wasting my time. Have you any suggestions (other than an expensive civil action).

I am sceptical about the claims made by some scientists and virtually all politicians, media and power-hungry individuals (especially those who have invested heavily in renewable energy or “carbon derivatives” (http://economicedge.blogspot.com/2009/04/carbon-derivatives-to-become-worlds.html) – the names Al Gore, David Blood, Goldman-Sachs, George Soros, Maurice Strong, (http://cleaves.zapto.org/news/story-2272.html?print_page=true).

On Carbon Derivatives, I was delighted to hear of the problems encountered by the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) and hope that the UK-based Climate Exchange, Plc (CLE) etc. fail miserably (although I suspect that the EU will continue to push this nonsense for as long as possible. There is too much money invested for them to give up without a fight. Of course the UK’s BBC keeps pushing the propaganda – why? – take a look at the extent of investment that the BBC Pension Scheme has committed to “ .. The BBC is the only media organisation in Britain whose pension fund is a member of the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change .. “ (http://bigjournalism.com/otockfield/2010/02/12/climategate-uk-edition-following-the-money-all-e4-trillion-of-it/).

Most lay people that I talk to are puzzled about the “science” being fed to them by the politicians and the media who are predicting CACC to encourage the taxpayer to feel good about handing over even more of their hard-earned money I order to “save the world for their children and grandchildren”. I have a simple rule. When I am puzzled I “follow the money”.

Hope I haven’t bored you with this if you don’t have any interest in the CACC con-trick. I couldn’t find anything about it on your blog, which surprises me, considering that you are a businessman and the CACC doctrine is that our modern style of business is unsustainable.

Best regards, Pete Ridley.

Otherwise, I’m usually fairly calm, though I will give what I get, no matter where it is. Hang in there, Rose; you’re doing good things with your blog.

I’m sure my day will come, if I get as popular as I’m shooting for, that I’ll have to fend off some unwarranted attack by someone looking to make their bones off me. At that time, I hope I have the money to either ignore them or crush them. Yeah, I go for the jugular.
