Too bad you get deep fisted. I get gently fingered by my youthful asian female doctor.
Sucks to be you.

How are any of you sure "Lois" never climbed?
That was the greatest troll, and you all were duped! Exposed as fools.

Seriously, I do not have a dog in this fight. LEB and I tangled on a thread a few years back, but in the end there was no ill will.
Several people have noted they have had "real" conversations with her, as opposed to interweb BS. She has provided good medical input to several tacoites. I think her intent was genuine but just misunderstood.
Let's not break the taco down by who is okay and who is excluded based on political orientation. I'd prefer to put all the political threads on a separate page so the climbing and friendly threads don't keep getting pushed off the page. Seems like 3/4 of the time I log in that dumb ass WATRSW thread is on the top of the page.
That is just not right.

Yes, Lois IS very sincere.
…much paranoia about a woman with dissimilar patterns of thought from what is accepted here.

Not sure I understand. Care to elaborate?
Edit: Are you saying only certain thought patterns are acceptable on the forum? Or are you being cynical? Or both? For us dumb ass men that don't understand what a woman implies, can you spell out your thoughts?

You defined things precisely with
"I think her intent was genuine but just misunderstood."
Much of Lois’ posting has been in advice-giving context (a reasonable standard for nurses). A novice or non-climber giving unsolicited advice in a climbing forum-mediated setting seems to irritate many, here.
It wouldn’t be paranoia if Lois was truly intent on despoiling ST forum's exchange of ideas and opinions.
She’s not the primary source of forum name-calling, vilification and demonizing …nor does she vulgarize the conversation, post topless pics or offensive photo manipulations of those she disagrees with. Yet, she’s been the ordained scapegoat for ST forum’s sins for years.

Simple lexical analysis contrasting posts from 2005 and today tells you pretty much everything you need to know about 'LEB'.

Like Graniteclimber and a few others, I have been in contact with LEB/Lois for several years. As far as I am concerned, she is genuine. She may drive some of us insane at times with some of her (inane?) posts, but… IMO there are/have been worse on the Taco Stand (in my, and only my, judgment).
However, if ChrisMac thinks that she may have crossed the line somewhere (I'll go read that Sobriety thread now), then in his judgment (and right) whacked her off the forum.
BTW Happie, Jennie's Korsakoff's Syndrome (due to Vitamin B1/Thiamine deficiency) was caused by long-term chronic alcohol abuse. I fear that I may be drifting down the booze road too far myself. Being a full-time carer 24/7 with little respite ain't easy, and sometimes a drink or so relaxes me. But anymore than that, which I have been doing at times (not binging though), passes the moderation point.
But we do occasionally go to AA meetings. And I agree, the internet is a very useful, and arguably powerful, place for alcoholics (both active and recovering) to find info and such.
Just to add, having more than one email address is not that uncommon. I have dpatricksawyer@gmail.com, dpatricksawyer@hotmail.com and patricksawyer@mountaineers.net (the latter is the one I registered with the Taco Stand with).
And as soon as I get www.thespis3t.com and www.patricksawyer.com up and running (they have just been home pages up to now), I'll have patrick@thespis3t.com and patrick@patricksawyer.com.
Perhaps there is a sound reason why Lois uses LEB@ and LEB50@.
EDIT: Dr F writes "I feel sorry for her supporters, What Lame asses!!"
Dr F, I am sorry you feel that way.
KLK and others, I know that 15k posts is rather absurd, but in my private correspondence with LEB, she was always helpful and considerate. Her online persona belies her real person, IMO.
