Dear Anonymous:

I am not sure who exactly you think I may or may not be...But I have my suspicions...

Anyway, I am happy to keep my opinions/suggestions to myself, as you have recommended.

My question for you is this: Who are you, and why do you have such an allegedly intimate knowledge of City Hall or personnel matters involving ANY former employee? How do you know what kinds of information anyone who posts here anonymously has access to? The phrase ''kept copies'' is especially intriguing.

Sounds as though you might still BE a City Hall employee, since they generally will not admit to anything without a court proceeding or legal mandate, and falsely find comfort in the fact that the only way the truth gets out of City Hall is through smuggled paperwork, and because Ohio Public Records law is given no weight within those walls. Good thing the Ohio Attorney General's office doesn't agree.

Just keep in mind though, that there are higher political and legal authorities out there that are capable of piercing the bubble. Better to embrace these authorities, rather than give us/them the impression you don't want them around.

In any event, since you believe you have such a keen perception of who I am, maybe you should just ''name names,'' and while you are at it, share your identity.

If you are a member of PATA, however, worry not, I for one won't be offering my opinions, thoughts or help through this forum again.

Ok Joan

I think you should continue to post your opinions anonymously, just don't let anyone know who you are and you would remain more effective.

Your handle of Joan D Arc is what really made me shoot off. That implies leadership role. That with the fact that you hint at a coming out party. Your baggage would preclude that for the good of the cause in my opinion.

Your opinions are valued by me and others, just don't make a press release on why you want to do it. Unfortunately, it may be a well meaning press release but many would not believe it and that is something you will have to live with unless you have a good attorney.

I think you probably got a bad rap. I hope you have learned a lesson. As a service to another now in your hot seat, a seemingly innocent person, please clue them in before it is too late for them! They then can bail out before the engine quits. That would be a great service to this person and this community. The city couldn't hire to replace the position if it were a revolving door....unless it was Lee Gray who applied.

Hey Anonymous, We?’re Waiting?…



Anonymous,

Joan D'Arc has issued a challenge you seem to have missed. Let me repeat on Joan?’s behalf, seeing how you have obviously made Joan less than welcome on your website?…

?“In any event, since you believe you have such a keen perception of who I am, maybe you should just ''name names,'' and while you are at it, share your identity?”

I?’m sure Bruce Rookstool and myself would love to know who you really are. I do have my suspicions (there is one anonymous poster on this website who is very clever and has access to a multitude of names and email addresses).

Anonymous, let?’s not play coy any longer, ok? Who do you ?“think?” is Joan D?’Arc and, most importantly, who are you?

Do tell?…

connect the dots

John,

I do not know what email list or name list you are referring to John, you and I have the simular lists on our computers and this person is not on my list, is this person on yours? I think you can connect the dots and figure out who this is.

Any monkey can spot Public Relations spew and tactics from a mile away. The first posting by Joan was a dead ringer for a former public relations professional. That is what clued me in. You are clever too, I think you knew too from moment one.
