Sam, your comprehension skills again fail you, as so often happens.
An important part of "the junk below" WAS published in Chess Life:
December 2001, page 7. However, it was ALTERED -- what appeared in
Chess Life WAS NOT what I wrote to Evans. Understand now?
Imagine, say, that you write: "Taylor Kingston is not a very nice
person." Later I purport to quote this as "Taylor Kingston is a very
nice person." Do you get the idea now?

Then you'd better get Redman on the phone right now, and have him
fire Peter Kurzdorfer retroactively.

See my comment above.

Sam, these "dozens of postings" are figments of your imagination. You
have not bothered to produce a single one. You cannot, because they do
not exist. However, as I predicted a few days ago, that has not stopped
you from repeating your fantasy.
I do insist that Evans is under this obligation: that if he quotes
someone -- me or anyone -- he must do so accurately. Do you consider
that unreasonable?
