I was startled!
Ridiculous! Thing who has absolutely nothing to do.
This site should go off the air for good common sense.

Sorry for the rant.

I have seen the site and was disturbed by it... Product of a sick mind: I also thought that, in a way, because it puts out false but plausible information it may cause someone to lose a booking, and therefore be actionable under law. There was a famous case where Lord Alfred Douglas, lover of Oscar Wilde, falsely reported his own death in Paris ( to the Times of London -I think) Because you cannot libel a dead person, the newspaper published a lurid obituary, and when Douglas showed up alive, sued for lots of money. I suppose implying someone is dead is libelous.

David.
I, for one, hope that Burt ties them in knots with his lawyers just for the sport of it: but being the gentleman, it won't happen.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice, there is.
