I have NO idea where you are finding some profile indicating I’m 30 years old? And I fail to see how my voice could at all be construed as a teenager posing as anything. It’s just a normal voice.

I think you’re hysterical and can’t bear it when your idols are challenged.

That this kind of psychosocial conditioning can be very, very thorough can be seen with this kind of tendentious statement:

“A semi-professional heckler using the moniker Prokofy was in the process of doing all she could to antagonize the host, the guests, and probably anyone who was listening. I even found myself responding to her baiting techniques in the Ustream chat room posting poorly thought-out comments back to her.”

I’m not a “heckler,” I’m merely someone *who disagrees with Steve Gillmor” about his idea of putting in the function of block within track. Um, I’m allowed to do that in a liberal democratic society, and I certainly should be doing it in the company of geeks who imagine they are following a scientific approach and are ostensibly willing to receive feedback about their inventions, still in beta.

Steve merely insulted my intelligence by haranguing me over and over again with the “news” that I supposedly “didn’t get it” about track. But I long before the show “got” how track/block works, and was calling him on his vanity use of it and his insistence in “cleansing” his vanity stream of people he hated. It’s worthwhile going and reading the grand total of *four tweets*, only one of which was directly addressed to @stevegillmor that GOSH OMGODZORZ disagreed with his show of the previous day and his comments. My God, what a crime, what a horror, what a spam, kill it, block it immediately!

The amazingly thin-skinned and arrogant default stance of these people — and you in their network — really leaves quite a few of us absolutely breathless.

Any transcript of this show will show you in spades who spoke the most, and who stepped on me and others the most: Gillmor. I merely tried to get the news through to him that I understood what track was, made a suggestion on what might work as a workaround for him, and lobbied for a broader understanding of how track affects the system.

Are you unwilling to accept alternative thinking *ever*? Must it all be the sanctified orthodox creed of the Valley *everywhere*?1

Uh, gosh, good work on your Google witch-hunting, but Encylopedia Dramatica — a racist, vicious griefing group’s source, by the way, in case you are unfamiliar with it — it is inaccurate to say I “work at the UN” as if I am on the staff — I am not. I don’t say I am “30″ as anyone can easily establish I am 51 merely by looking up my straightforward linkage of my SL name and real-life name in Google on sources that are more credible — that particular one simply contains falsehoods that are easily corrected by Google sleuthing.

You seem to find it difficult to understand that someone can have an avatar, and have a pen-name.

Where is your real-life picture? What is your real-life name? And can you provide us with granular details about your work life, Pixie Dreams?

You are an invalid interlocutor if you think somehow you are playing “gotcha” and linking up pictures of me to harass me with — it’s an old story.

Hopefully, you will open your mind just a tiny crack and be willing to hear not just a stream of orthodox diktat from the aply-named Gillmor Gang, but an array of contrasting and competing ideas on that show which is suppose to be the more open of his two shows — but so far they all sing from the same hymn sheet pretty much.
