I don't know if Steve actually said this, or if he deleted it after saying it. It's not on his Twitter account. He was one of the people I'd like to be friends with again, but I won't as long as he's helping promote the pain. If this is real, I can see that isn't likely to happen too soon. - Dave Hussein Winer
when did the H get dropped from his last name? - Jeff Quinton
Just FYI, I use the block command in FriendFeed, liberally. When someone is abusive, I block them without a second thought. - Dave Hussein Winer
You guys just need to meet face-to-face and hug it out. - Mike Doeff
this crap needs to stop already gees... ok... guys... go out for a drink together and deal with it - Susan Beebe
Susan the crap about the crap having to stop has to stop already! (That's satire, protected under the First Amendment.) Seriously, the people who get in the middle and tell people to shut up are being ridiculous and self-contradictory. If your goal is silence, then start with yourself and STFU. - Dave Hussein Winer
It seems to me that he wasn't saying that it's laughable that you're lecturing tech blogosphere about grownups, but rather sharing with you the opinion that it's laughable for anyone to do it. I hope that helps. - Richard Shulman
Dave Winer continues to whine like a schoolgirl. Dave why don't you quit complaining, and take action? Do something to further your agenda as opposed to crying about it online. - Granteezy
Really, David? You don't say... I never took you for a blocking type. - Aaron Brazell
Look the idiot who started this crap is Loren Feldman! He criticizes people but when someone criticizes him he blocks them. Fuck Loren and the pot he shits in. Maybe he is blogging from under the bridge right now juiced in to some police Wi-Fi. LMAO - Igor The Troll
Oh and Gilmore tell Loren he can suck my Dick. If I go after him, he will be history. Just ask Mat Cutts and Adam Lasnik. I do not forget and I do not give up. And I can afford it. It is my hobby! lol - Igor The Troll
nice tip Dave Winer. should we all block Dave then :D - DC Crowley

dave simply blocks ppl for disagreeing with him, not only for being abusive. for someone who's that abrasive and, ahem, vocal, it seems he has the thinnest skin around. just an observation. maybe we can take a break from the antagonism for a while. dunno. sometimes i too get focused on being adversarial, even if it's just for the sake of humor. - Wolfsbayne
Wolfsbayne, if you're so smart -- why haven't I blocked you? - Dave Hussein Winer
be very careful @stevegillmor... @DaveWiner might unblock you! ;-) - Jason Calacanis
@davewiner you did block me on twitter simply for telling you that "your berkeley was showing" in response to one of your political rants. http://twitter.com/wolfsbayne/... - Wolfsbayne
