I wouldn't put it quite like that. When people let their hair
down they usually enjoy themselves and this spreads to those around
them. I cannot believe Dawlish is enjoying himself on weather groups,
two of which he has been chucked off, as he would have been from here
if it were moderated.
He may well be very good and professional at the job he does
because he is in a position of authority and can tell teachers what is
required, and having engaged him they will be grateful. But on this
group he is a long way down the pecking order in terms of
meteorological knowledge which to me seems skimpy and shallow despite
his blustery efforts to convince us otherwise. He simply cannot
handle his modest status on this group. I would imagine that would
also be the case in any other co-operative activity in which he was
not the big cheese, such as the jazz Big Band I play in. He would be
telling the band leader and those in the section what's what and he
would be out in no time. It happens. Unfortunately it can't happen
here.

Like all bullies he's insecure and wants the world (weather?) to revolve
around him.

I generally try to take no note of him. The oxygen of any troll (bully)
is acknowledgement.

So your way of taking no note of him is to start a thread
pointing to his website and therefore acknowledgement.....

Not sure about that, Col. This mockery, now out in the open,
must get to him. Yes, even him. And I did draw attention to the vast
difference between his internet personality and his apparent
professional one and the possible reasons for it.
The thing to do is to not reply to any of his posts, something I
have occasionally done, thinking he had toned down the bullying. It
won't happen again. Promise. From now on, rigorous ignoral.
I had an email from Alan White, mostly about the weather but
which ended "Keep up the fight". Enemies everywhere. We will win!

Echo the sentiment, Tudor.....You come across as a sensible, if HAIRY,
individual.....lucky you, eh!? ;-)

Lawrence mentioned he met you for a drink and figured you were a nice chap.
I reckon you bought more rounds!?

Precisley Tudor, I wanted to show the man behind the bullying messages.
To show that he's ordinary .

professional one and the possible reasons for it.

I almost never reply to his messages.

Tudor - I realise that this was a turn of phrase but you'd hope that
pecking orders don't exist in Usenet that do in forums with their
"managers" and other such positions of faux-authority.

No, actually Lawrie bought *me* a drink, whereas he himself was on
Coke as he said he'd been drinking at home (red wine) and might have
another when he got back. He was not drunk, not in the slightest, and
nor was I, for essential motoring reasons. I live 12 miles from
Beautiful Downton Sydenham, London SE9.
I've mentioned in emails to certain people that Lawrence is
considerably more self-effacing than you might have thought and is
genuinely upset at the current row. Unlike Dawlish, he doesn't
pretend to know more than he does, either personally or in print. It
makes me really angry that such a person should feel compelled to
withdraw in the face of the bullying ratbag Dawlish, who should be
ashamed of himself for this and a host of similar offences committed
here and elsewhere. But, as Alan Bennett might say, "He won't be,
will he?" We simply *must* ignore him.
Having met Lawrence, this has really upset me, the injustice of
it all.

Dawlish, in his alter ego as an Ofsted consultant would, I'm
sure, like to see a school's anti-bullying policy. Well, Paul, we've
got one here, just for you. It consists of pulling the chain, waving
goodbye and breathing a "pwoar, I feel better for that". The smell on
the landing will disappear in no time and we can get back to talking
about the weather.
