No Press Release has been issued from Hot Desert Knights, and it certainly reads as if it is a press release from HDK. I can assure everyone on this board that Ken has not spoken with me or with anyone at HDK.

As for my relationship with my former partner John, that's personal, and frankly no business or concern of anyone here on this board. But to pass on a statement that he was left penniless and homeless, without verifying such a statement, frankly flabbergasts me and is certainly not true.

Ken stated this came from psjohn42@earthlink.net, hmmm, wonder who that is. The surprise is that Ken would post here or anywhere without verifying the veracity of an email he received from someone he doesn't know.

Ken, I've always respected you as a jounalist, and helped you out whenever you asked, but no longer. When you don't have the balls, integrity or courtesy to at least contact me before making statements about me, that shows a lack of integrity and major character flaws.

According to my ex-wife, she has not been contacted by anyone and has not given any quotes to anyone about anything.

Ken, as for not posting as a jounalist, I suppose you'd better take a look at your signature line. Going to be very difficult for you to support that assertion in court.
