Indeed.

If someone has hard evidence of a crime (claiming to be "god" is not a 
crime), take it to the relevant authorities - don't spout it here.  If 
you don't have evidence, then accusations are public humiliation and 
lynching.  That in itself is likely to be criminal, or at least liable, 
and is morally unjustifiable here.  It is particularly reprehensible to 
do so on no more basis than some posts by unknown people about other 
unknown people.  Two vital principles for modern society are that people 
are innocent until proven guilty, and that establishing guilt and meting 
out punishment is handled by designated authorities and not private 
individuals - these apply to everyone.

It is appropriate to call out someone /here/ if they post something 
illegal, offensive, or outside the norms of public decency /here/, in 
one of these newsgroups.  It is not appropriate to spread or promote 
vicious rumours where we have no idea if they are true or not, no way of 
knowing if they are true or not, and which, if true, should be handled 
in a totally different context.

Olcott has posted (yet again) about his ideas regarding halting 
behaviour.  Let's all stick to that, responding in whatever way you 
think suits - supporting his ideas, arguing against them, ridiculing 
them, giving advice, telling him that they are way off-topic for 
comp.lang.c, ignoring him, killfiling him, or whatever.
