It’s amazing to me that the three who responded  accused me of being
paranoid or a liar. If they really believe that then at least explain why
you think that way. Surely I can’t be the only person here who’s
experienced such a thing. I don’t even understand why these people hang out
in this group if it’s not for the exchange of information and being helpful
to each other.
