crash crash at subsection.org.uk

Hello all,

it appears that james venables has taken serious personal offence at my 
suggestion to reduce the workload of BIMC through taking personal 
discussions offline. He has also taken serious offence at sending an 
email to both his and Jografer's email addresses. However, I did this in 
the knowledge that both users have publicly posted their email addresses 
on the site:

James Venables: http://bristol.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=3225
Jografer: http://bristol.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=10005


As he has banned me from putting my case to him, I would like to ask 
others in the collective to help resolve this.

Thanks & regards,

Crash
