I'd say you have some sleazy friends, then. For them to fax off copies of what they think of as rants is bad enough, but for one of your contacts to then "alert" the others is mind-boggling.
The context was blurred with each successive forwarding. I might add that as the forwarding went on, it ventured farther into the "business associate" types, and much farther from the "friend" catagory.
If the context was blurred by each of the people in the chain of friends and associates of yours before the 'uptight business associates' saw it then aren't they as responsible for you defamation as tmp is? Not an attack... I personally agree that lawsuits are acceptable in the right circumstance... merely an observation. Jim -- Tantalus Inc. Jim Sewell Amateur Radio: KD4CKQ P.O.
