If it comes down to a legal defense fund for Brad, there wouldn't
be much problem getting support from the net. However, I do not think
that it is in the best interests of Usenet to start such a fund to sue
Mr. Richmond for libel.  Besides, shouldn't that be Brad's decision?

Let's just ignore Mr. Richmond for the time being, and soon he will
crawl back into the heap of rotting vegatation from which he came.
