Is this an attempt at humor?  Is there really a 'real person' behind these
"Tom Robertson" posts?  Or is this simply another bedlamite ranting, another
'tommy turd' I may step in lest I skimp on diligence?  What do I do?  What
approach do I take?  The Theosophical thing to do would be to give him the
benefit of the doubt. . .but I'm not sure I'm a Theosophist. . .so that
isn't going to help me. Man, I hate these moral dilemmas.  Should I look
upon him as friend rather than foe?  Should I recognize him as a brother. . .


Whoa!  Jump back there girl!  Get a grip!  You almost had me there, Tombo.
That was close. . .
