Your inability to take the posts at face value, rather than fixating on non-existing images is your problem Larry. Being anonymous isn't synonymous with being a troll, and there are plenty of excellent contributions from anonymous posters in Mudcat to prove you both paranoid and wrong.

The point is, and remains, that you have been hoodwinked by an anonymous troll, but because of your prejudices against blank "From" lines, you weren't able to suss out the troll in your midst trying to start an anti-American flame war in a US folk music forum.
