As many of you know, I am an actor and author. What many do not know, however, is that I am also a politician. A rather controversial one at that. Back in 2005, I made every AP-affiliated newspaper in the world, and it has followed me ever since.

As many of you also know, I am the chief conservation officer for the only wild dawn redwood forest in the world, outside of China, and there is a website for that.

A few years back, an anti traced the link in my sig to that website, back here, and sent me a PM with some key information; enough to convince me that he knew who I was. It's a classic move; a scare tactic. A precursor to doxing. Not knowing if it was a just a freak, or possibly someone I had sent to prison, I contacted the admins on here, who gave me his name, IP addy and email addy. In conjunction with the Bureau, it was determined he was just a freak POS. I sent him an email letting him know I knew who he was as well. End of story.

At that point, however, I was tired of all of this shyte and just decided to take a break from everything. Then my brother killed himself and I just went full recluse for a while, sorting everything out. I have since separated the wheat from the chaff, and I am now back; ready to share and learn with everyone on here, once again. You guys are like family, and I'm sorry I didn't call you for Thanksgiving or Christmas. I hope y'all understand.
