Yet another inaccuracy in the story is the portrait drawn of the now infamous feud I had with South Knox Bubba.
For the record, I don't recall Mr. Neal ever saying anything about the story in question personally - and certainly not that it glorified drunk driving.
The issue I had was with anonymous posters on his blog making what I thought were pretty crude personal attacks on these two writers. My point then was that no one had the right to hide behind anonymity while lobbing personal insults and accusations at real people. Mr. Neal and I had a disagreement about that and, while I agree with Barry that I was too thin skinned at times, I still feel the same way. Irrespective, Mr. Neal and his blog seem to be doing better than ever these days and I think its due, in no small part, to the fact that he's worked hard to make it a place where people can have civil discourse.
