I'm fairly outspoken here on Plashing Vole, particularly on work matters, but I tend to 'play the ball, not the man', as the saying goes. It's a good job too: my sister in Dublin sent me
this piece about a court case between a lecturer and his college president (vice-chancellor equivalent), part of which centres on the lecturer's blog, which turned rather nasty:
A ROW between a college lecturer and his university boss boiled over onto the internet when a web blog called on the president to reveal whether his father was a member of the Nazi party.
The Nazi reference appeared in a blog in September last year. It said it was time the professor revealed whether his father was a member of the Nazi party, if he fought in World War II and whether he was coerced or was a willing participant.
