::In the more distant past, my announced status has been things like "RETIRED" and "SEMI-RETIRED, BUT NOT DEAD", with explanations like '''"This user is no longer active at Conservapedia. God Bless."''' and "I do not edit here very frequently, because I have to log in from a college that I don't get to very often.  Be patient."

::The "retired" status came about from frustration over the number of times I have been blocked for bogus reasons.  Some of them were false socking charges.  After one of my returns, someone<ref>User Conservative, affectionately called "Cons"</ref> took it upon himself to vape this page and my talk page.  The "semi-retired" notice was an attempt to keep that from happening.

::I no longer log in from a college; I use my own home internet connection.  And I no longer use proxies.  The avoidance of my home internet connection came about because, at one time, admins used "checkuser" to look for sockpuppets, blocking any people who seemed to come from the same place on the internet.  This occasionally caused people to be wrongly blocked for coming from the same ISP node as another.  I didn't want to cause some innocent person using my same ISP to be blocked.  This kind of blocking no longer takes place.  My current ISP shows a location in Lowell, Massachusetts.  I don't live there.

==Early December, 2015, On the Curious Matter of Sex With Horses==

I'm not an expert in poetry, atheist or otherwise, but I found [[Atheist poetry]], and its talk page, to be a welcome contrast from most of the topics Cons<ref>That's [[User:Conservative]]</ref> writes about.  Cons got into a spirited discussion of the topic with [[User:JohnSelway]] and [[User:JohnZ]] on the [[Talk:Atheist poetry|talk page]].  So I congratulated him on his good taste in this matter, with a note on that talk page.  But I also expressed disappointment that he had seemingly grown tired of the poetry topic, and had gone back to writing about bestiality.

At about that time, he went on an editing binge, making 43 edits on the subjects of "Atheism and bestiality" or horses, including the creation of the article [[Essay: I say NAAAAAY to atheism and evolutionism!]], complete with a picture of a horse, which clearly suggests a particular interest in the topic of sex with horses.
