Anyone who feels they are currently victims of a campaign
to forge their articles can easily solve the problem.

Announce publicly that you are now withdrawing from posting
to the net for a specified period (three months or so), and
that in this period of time, any and ALL postings from "you"
should be ignored as a forgery.

Whoever is forging these articles will no longer have any
fun, since they will not confuse anyone, and will eventually
stop.  Your own name will be cleared.  After the furor dies
down and the forgers go on to bigger and better things, you
can return with some hope of being believed.

What?  You CAN'T stop posting for that long?  Your livelihood
would disappear?  Tsk, tsk.

I would like to take you seriously but to do so would affront
your intelligence.  -- Wm. F. Buckley
