    Bradford stated August 28th:

    >I need you to please post this to the MD so that folks know I've written
    >something else there about the hoax in response to your MD posting of Sat.
    >27th August.

    Ant McWatt comments:

    Firstly, you have a real cheek to ask me to assist you with anything after
    seeing what you and Struan Hellier have posted on your websites.

    Secondly, I've looked very closely at the self-centred piece of whining that
    your link took me to and - after reading through it a number of times - I
    still couldn't see any apologies from Hellier or yourself either to Mark
    Maxwell or David Boyce.

    Just one further comment about your whining. You state:

    "It is a little sad to think that Anthony should bring up the condition of
    Mark's mother as a way of soliciting bitterness towards me in front of the
    MD, but of course I never knew..."

    This comment beggars belief. Of course, you never knew. You didn't give a
    second thought to the personal circumstances of any of the people that you
    were happy to bugger around with your hoax. What, for instance, they had to
    deal with a seriously ill sibling – as I had to - throughout the Conference?
      You really are pathetic to think that your behaviour was OK because you
    didn’t know.

    “Bahn” stated on August 23rd:

    “Pray tell Anthony... DMB...or anyone else. Is the back patting still going
    on? Was the conference still a success in light of this hoax.”

    Ant McWatt comments:

    Firstly, it’s nice to receive an e-mail from you which doesn’t contain an
    expletive at every second or third word. Yes, the back patting is still
    going on and we are looking forward very much to developing the MOQ in the
    future and to organising the next Conference.

    Secondly, let’s get some issues straight here. Anyone invited to the July
    Conference (and remember this included “dissenters” such as Ham Priday, Matt
    Kundert, Scott Roberts and Sam Norton) was free to present a paper of
    whatever viewpoint they wanted. I only proof read the Loggins paper for
    grammar and phrasing. I had to trust contributors with the content in the
    interests of free speech and because of time restraints (for instance, I had
    to organise, amongst other things, hiring rooms for the lectures and the
    social events, the catering facilities, the IT equipment, photocopying, the
    documentary film crew, a boat cruise, the invitations, the conference
    papers, chairing the conference as well as accommodation – which I vetted
    beforehand - for a number of attendees). If someone wanted to abuse my
    trust by sending in a hoax paper that largely appealed to mine and David
    Boyce’s sympathy because of the author’s supposed disabilities then that
    really is sad. By the way, as David had to read it out, the paper was
    further edited by him to remove the more sycophantic and over the top
    remarks so don’t assume that any of the Conference attendees was fooled by
    the paper as it appears on your website/s. It was never presented in that
    form.

    Thirdly, David Boyce spent many hours practising reading out the paper and
    Mark Maxwell drove sixty miles on a round trip to David’s house to deliver
    some “last minute” changes that “Richard Loggins” requested on the Sunday
    evening before the Conference week. Mark is presently driving his mother to
    and from hospital three times a week so he could certainly do without any
    unnecessary driving. David and Mark at least deserve an apology from
    Hellier and Bradford though - as far as I can see at the moment - the latter
    still haven’t appreciated how much time and hard work that they wasted by
    people who certainly had no argument with them. Mind you, of course, that’s
    typical behaviour of self-centred immature people.
