Struggling to be serious about this Whitechapel Farce for a moment, the one thing that does emerge clearly is that whatever the truth behind all the various excuses that have been made (pressure of work, unprofessional behaviour by critics, DNA privacy, work still in progress, "legal reasons") Dr Louhelainen is simply not going to address the issue of the error that he has made.

I've been out of circulation for a while, and come back to find, if I read it correctly, that the WS meeting at Salisbury, provided no answers. Now that's a surprise!
It seems clear to me that Chris is right. Nothing will come from these blokes regarding this matter. RE seems unable to string any sort of argument together. He now claims that the 314.1c/315.1C thing was unimportant, when in fact it was the only thing that had any legs at all - or so it seemed for a few days.
Respect for RE must surely be non-existant, as an author I mean.
JL is fast losing any chance of respect. He seems quite unable, at least publicly, to admit to anything, or even discuss it.
What a couple of pillocks! They make Cornwell look good.Mick Reed

Still, nobody threatened to throw eggs at you. And your books haven't met with the same degree of hostility. The worst you could expect was to be treated as a joke, which isn't really all that bad, but in fact all the delegates treated you very well indeed, as I would expect.

After the talks we met up with several delegates who informed us of the blatant censorship and shambolic conduct of the Q&A including the conference MC who informed us that 5 mins prior he was informed by Edwards that DNA questions would not be answered.
The MC also informed us the two body guards sitting with Edwards were quite intimidating and he feared if he had pushed the questions he might have been under threat.

Originally posted by PaulB View PostYou are right. I'll leave the comedy to you. For some reason I just can't seem to make a fool of myself. And I suppose it must seem to you that I have strange lines of thought and an absence of logical reasoning. Those things which are unfamiliar to oneself, like thinking and logical reasoning, so often seem strange. It's the way of the world, I suppose.

Do not attempt to put yourself in ethical category against Paul Begg. Begg and I have had serious difficulties in the past, there is no question, but that is an insult that is intolerable coming from you.
And don't bother reporting me on this one, I'll report myself and give myself the damn infraction, it needed to be said.
Let all Oz be agreed;
I need a better class of flying monkeys.

I'm glad they're all smiling and look like nice guys.

It's kind of hard to believe all of this is real.
Except of course for the part that isn't real.

Checking the jtrforums - quite a vociferous and sometimes nasty debate.
I get a feeling of having fallen down a rabbit hole.
And RE and his musclebound cohorts are probably laughing all the way to the bank.
cheers, gryff
PS: Anyone know if "Daz the Bull" and John are present for RE's ripper tours?
