George Nemeth doesn’t deny hacking my blog
Tue, Jul 14, 2009
I am asking around to find out how various Meet The Bloggers posts at my blog disappeared, and here’s the relevant portion of George Nemeth’s response to my email asking for an explanation.
Sorry to hear that you’re missing content on your blog. I can imagine how you feel. Last time BFD crashed, I lost about 5 months of posts that I’ll never get back.
There’s never been a crash at my blog of this kind since I launched in April, 2008. And after looking at my database for the period April, and July, 2008, when the posts in question disappeared, no other posts have disappeared from April, or July, 2008, other than the ones regarding George, Scott Piepho, and MTB. It’s as if they’ve been literally plucked out.
While jumping to the conclusion that I “hacked your blog” seems reasonable based on our past history, hacking would be unprofessional and frankly unethical. I think my standards are much higher then that.
That’s not a denial.

i don’t know the guy from adam, but if i were the accused in this case the first line of my email to you would have been a clear-cut, if not vehement, denial. i then would have included a more nuanced explanation to back up my denial and potentially assuage hurt feelings from the past.
what you have quoted here is something i would write if i were guilty as a former buffalo bills running back.
