legend,
if you find that the russian is a nice person when you talk to her then thats fine.
She always claimed to be misunderstood and ganged up on and yet would always choose a name so as people new who she had been before. If she had started afresh as a greenie with no relation to how she had been then perhaps she'd have been seen differently.
Personally, Im with all the other posters who have been sickened by the abuse shes given people and the posts that she made, some were just vile, and I cant now take her seriously with anything that she types.
