I do have questions and I will follow up on this. What exactly is an Accusation, and they don't say anything about any Decisions or Orders. I thought I was using their terminology but they seem to have changed it up on me. If there are no Accusations does that automatically mean there are no Decisions or Orders? Also: Does it seem to you like a medical professional board of examiners email response to a written and snail mailed letter should have a Bunny looking to gain world domination in their signature line?

Am I getting paranoid or is it weird that the page where Whitcomb's credentials were posted on the CA.gov Department of Consumer Affairs website now says "License lookup is temporarily unavailable during maintenance", and they apologize for this inconvenience...? Doo Doo Doo...
Luckily I put a copy of the whole page in the previous blog post, Paul Whitcomb's Credintials.

{The credentials page is ba-ack as of 5/5/08}

This is also new. When I just scanned my blog with Copyscape they came up with eight results. The first points to a site that seems to be in Chinese. I kid you not. The next two results are from something called CastleCops Blogspot Redirection and their titles are "Blogspot redirection, Porn site." Hmmm. Then there are four results from Born and Bred in Brooklyn blog, "whose page seems to have recently removed your (my) content" and the cached version is gone. One last result titled "What does CSS/XHTML and SEO have to do with Greek Architecture?" whose page also seems to have recently removed my content and the cached version is gone. Oh, for the good old days when the only results to my Copyscape scan were obvious and easily explained.

Ok, I've faced my paranoia head on and now I'm moving past it. With one final nod to the Paranoia Blues by Paul Simon:

I got the paranoia blues
From knockin' around In New York City
Where they roll you for a nickel
And they stick you for the extra dime

Oh yeah, yeah

Oh no, no. Oh no, no
There's only one thing I need to know
Whose side are you on
Whose side are you on

Whose side, whose side, whose side
