NOMINATION: digest, volume 2453397
The Richard Dawson of Rogers Park pulled a bright blue crayon out of the
box and scribbled this in : On Wed, 26 Jan 2005 19:31:23 -0700, Art Deco scribbled: [...] For his continuing cowardice, including context snippage leading to de facto post editing via "digesting", blatant snipping of links he does not want publicized, Foamy-style labeling of his nicknames as "attribution problems," and general running away from the truth of his kookery, I nominate Dave "Davie Pee Wee Tholenator(tm) the Lame" Tholen for Coward of the Month, January 2005. Anyone care to second? Oh, and continue tholing, Tholenator(tm). I second the nomination of Tholen for CotM. Thirded with alacrity. I predict that he will pretend to be 'above all this' by not responding except with even more inaccurate and repetitive digests. I wonder if his students will know about this and his other Usenet honours? For their sakes, I can only hope that he doesn't conduct his classes with the same lack of integrity that he shows online.

When I go it will be for the NA World Convention in Honolulu so the side trip to The Big Island would be to see my friend and the lava.
