Since I have little time, I thought I will address the comment that Teflon made about my absence despite my posting nearly every day albeit not in the frequency in the recent past. Something I explained in the thread about me being missing. I thought this might make interesting reading for someone.
Running road is when you make a statement or back a horse and you no longer want to be associated with it for various reasons. A good recent example is the TKL's candidature for the PE. Those who are familiar with TKL and Ramseth relationship would know this. Teflon disappeared for the entire duration and supposedly eatings frogs in Thailand. GMS who is not as smart went down in flames and the man lost his deposit making an embarrassment for all those associated with him.
I have known of Ramseth since he stepped into this forum. I aware after a time who his associates are, the opposition parties that he associates with and identities he follows. I am also aware of people who avoid him. In all these years, he has never said a single bad word about PAP or even attempted to step on their toes. Here is a classic of his, a post he made today about the Hri Kumar Nigerian caper and I put it in full. Note in particular that it is completely neutral and nothing on Hri Kumar and the PAP.

Re: Latest: MP Vikram Nair wants to sue TOC's E-Jay Ng!
There's a difference between intentional and unintentional misrepresentation of facts leading to the defamation of one's reputation. If a lawsuit is filed, the difference is in the quantum of damages. Facts and only full facts are absolute defense against defamation.
For example, I saw you walking into a hotel with a woman. I went on to tell your wife and friends about it. But actually, you were just a corporate repsentative bringing a client to a restaurant in the hotel. It's still defamation because I didn't have full facts and evidence. But the damages may be migitated since I actually saw something and acting out of goodwill or in this case scenario, sense of domestic and social justice, i.e. I felt sorry for them and had to tell them.
Example 2, you somehow offended me and I cooked up a story about you having extramarital affairs. That's straightforth unmitigable malicious defamation.
Example 3, I saw you bringing a woman into a hotel all the way up into a room overnight and checking out only next morning. I go tell your wife, relatives and friends. It'd be indefensible since all hotels have check-in and check-out records and CCTV all the way to outside room doors. Sue me for defamation?"
