HistoryBA should do more research before undertaking a Misplaced Pages entry. Simply reading my blog would have given him the material to accurately describe me and to explain the Kinsella lawsuit and put it into some context regarding Kinsella and the Canadian blogging scene.

Among them:
* that the settlement apology was a complete retraction of the blog entry
* that the settlement came because of a lack of funds to fight the case. The blog shows otherwise. The correction that settled the suit was essentially the same one posted in late January. There was no reason to litigate when, essentially, Kinsella agreed to accept the same retraction that was already posted, with an added apology. Again, reading the blog would have showed this.

If details of my life are important enough to be posted on Misplaced Pages, then the fact that I'm a published author and have won the country's top award for magazine writing are at least as important as a month-long controversy over a slap suit.
