Of much less importance than the thorough and great documentation Leon provided above, but fascinating none-the-less:

If Peter "liked" someone in the hobby who was convicted or accused of wrong-doing, he wouldn't cover the story in his Hauls-of-Shame blogs.

If you were not one of "Peter's friends", he would twist facts, mislead and slam those he choose to in those same blogs.

O'Keefe once told me that when he spoke with Nash it was like the twilight zone. About a third of the stuff is actually true, a third of it is grossly exaggerated and a third of it is total fabrication. Trying to figure out which was which was the difficult part, I guess. There are very few people in the world, which I have any real knowledge of, who I call "bad". He is one of the very few. Maybe if he goes to jail for a long time, pays all he owes and repents, he can turn himself around. Who knows. Here is some more reading. It could go on for days but won't ...

Don't know the guy personally and have no information as to what he did or didn't do to anyone, but all this squares with one thing I've seen over and over in my life . . . often times the sanctimonious types who make a living outing other people's transgressions or weaknesses are doing what they do simply to divert attention from their own (usually bigger) cons and scams.

If kosher, would it be permissible to seek recommendations of non-partisan political blogs. I would enjoy discussing some issues in a board that shares characteristics with this one. Bright, educated comments, with name shown, no trolls or ad hominem attacks. If ok by Leon, maybe some of you who also talk politics on non-partisan boards could give me a lead (privately if necessary).

If I can stray further O-T: Go Tide. My college roommate (1966) was from Selma, Alabama. Being a native of Virginia myself, I found it more enjoyable to root for the Tide. Been a fun ride for 50 years.

More important than if the web site is still operational is Mr. Nash has not written anything since June. To me, that is more a clue of his moribund status than just re-upping for the website.

Honorable John M. Galasso. Gotta wonder if he is any relation to Renata.

Tried the link as seen in the OP and the website comes up for me as well. Perhaps the OP originally tried 'haul' instead of 'hauls' when entering in the website address.

I used a fixed link to visit this site so a typing error was not possible.

Sure enough the site was switched this morning, but now it's back to Peter's control again.

Perhaps he was able to pay his bill and have it redirected. I assure you, this morning it was taken over by another company.

Maybe he read here that his site ownership had lapsed?

Hi, new member. A couple points:

1- You're post is unintelligible;
2- I'm confident that if I could understand it, I would disagree with you;
3- No politics are discussed on this board; and
4- We're serious about that rule that if you give an opinion about someone, your full name must be included in your post.

That's funny. When that Ullman guy made a d-bag comment about Trump in this thread, you said absolutely nothing!!! But here someone goes against your hero and suddenly you're outraged???????????

I wasn't outraged, but I did disagree. But "that Ullman guy" put his name on his post, and he was admonished by Leon for discussing politics. This gentleman ignored Leon's warning about politics and left his name off his comment.

But yes, I admit that I am an Obama supporter.

Truth be told I think we are all guilty of this. I have never met 1 single person who does not twist the truth a little when it comes to friends and family.
