Mind's Eye Re: Dear moderator/s

AEzen, I have been a moderator in this group for several years and do
not remember a minds eye member with your profile.  While your profile
reflects that you posted once here in 2/2011, I do not remember it,
and this does not indicate that you are a member.  At the time of your
posting, new members were kept on moderation until they posted several
times and proved to be rational. I cannot explain why you think you
have posted here frequently, and your profile reflects that you have
had one post. Do you have another profile?

I notice that you post in atheism vs Christianity. Any chance you are
confusing the groups?
