Half-awake this morning, I thought I'd catch up on the Fascination with Kimmer thread on Low Carb Friends.
As I read the first post in Thread 16 from Tom Roddy, Administrator of LCF and the owner of Netrition, my eyes popped out of my head.
Read carefully what he said:

Why the fascination with Kimmer? #16
Welcome to: Why the fascination with Kimmer? #16As a reminder, please be respectful of dissenting views and please avoid personal insults of others - including the subject of these threads. Thank you."
Say what???
Heidi Diaz is able to personally ruin the health of thousands of people with her starvation diet but the posters on LCF are no longer able to throw barbs at her? Give me a freakin' break.
Tom Roddy, as owner of Netrition, has had his personal fortunes largely enriched by the continued support of posters on the thread, who buy their low-carb products from his company. The very reason for the thread's existence is Heidi Diaz/Kimmer and his now censuring the posters seems just a tad disingenuous to me. Tom, be careful not to cut off your nose to spite your face.
Having been banned from LCF (including the blocking of my IP), I can speak from experience when I say that ALL posters (even the favourites of Tom, Dottie, and Cheri) had better be VERY careful now not to disparage the character or form of Heidi Diaz/Kimmer.
The LCF mods love the ban buttton as much as Heidi, so, as Ivana loves to say, "Fair warning, ladies."
In the interests of free speech, I will henceforth open my blog to anyone who wants to rant about anything.
Just post a comment on this blog post and let the free flow of conversation ensue. I will not edit or delete comments.
When the comments become too lengthy I will start a new post...just like Tom, but without edicts or admonitions.
