Dear Fellow PB Participants and Dr. Bob:

Please take time to post your answer to the question presented at the end of this post.

I would like your opinions regarding the incident which began when Jai Narayan said the following about Larry Hoover while Mr. Hoover was blocked from posting:

> > I have to say Larry Hoover is not as he seems, I too thought he was a wonderful and thoughtful person till I came up against *his* strict rules. I have been hurt and assaulted by his attitudes and the people who think Larry " can do no wrong". I am not suprised at all that he has overstepped his bounds. Sometimes I thought he could have been sued for the claims he made about products he uses. He sometimes behaves like a pdoc....telling all what they should take and not take. I was repeatedly surprised that this was *okay*. If he decided what someone should take then he would give a dose level....well that sure looked like perscribing to me. I am amazed how he got as far as he got. I have seen people sued for less. I guess I have wondered how this site was exempt from the legal rules. It sure looked risky.
IMHO

Jai Narayan received a PBC for these comments about Larry. In fairness, please note that Dinah (acting as deputy administrator) issued the PBC and I don’t think she has the site-access requirements to implement a block. However, Dr. Bob most certianly could have elevated the PBC to a block if he deemed the post worthy of a more than a PBC.

After his block was over, Larry replied to Jai Narayan’s comments as follows:

> Frankly, I can only react with amazement that anyone would display morals/ethics that would lead to a post such as this one, while in full knowledge that the other party could not possibly reply.

Larry was blocked for six weeks for his reply.

Please consider Jai Narayan’s words and the associated punishment and compare it to Larry Hoover’s words and the associated punishment. Is this just, or is the PB justice system broken? I’d like to hear your opinion. Broken or just?

-- Ron
