The whole 'Susan' thing

Guys and gals, can't we just let this go?

We have established that we do not believe what Susan holds to be true. Good for us. Now can we just move on?
The more we pay tribute to her posts, the more we focus our attention on her, the bigger her role will become. How much more likely is it for newcomers to read her posts first because she gets so many reactions? And how easy will it be for them to decide they don't want any part in this shit?

Besides, who cares? Even if Susan was right and there would be a stand in, SO WHAT? Would it change the songs? Would it change what they mean to you? Would it stop you from enjoying them? Would they mean less to you than they do now?

I cannot answer for all of you, but I for myself can say No it would not. I honestly wouldn't care to find out that Jim Steinman was not who I thought he was. He was a mystery to me before and will remain a mystery to me until such time that he chooses to reveal all his inner most secrets to me. And though that happens frequently in the middle of the night in that beautiful place called my dreams, I have no doubt that will never happen in real life and I like it that way. The only thing I love more about Jim than his music is the fact that I can't have him. I know... nothing safer than an impossibility.

I am a damaged person and I have issues. I have showed that in my reactions here before, especially towards Susan, and if there was ever any damage or hurt done by my reactions, to her or anyone else, I appologize.

I don't believe what Susan tells us because I choose not to believe. I need all these songs to come from one person. A person as intelligent, complex and damaged by life as I am.
And would any of it ever turn out to be true... it wouldn't change my feelings towards the songs.

Now can we just move on?? Is it possible to leave this episode behind us? As far as I am concerned, Susan can stay. I don't care whether she stays or goes, I just don't read her posts anymore. Besides, every village needs a local nutter if nothing else, and since the last nutters appear to have quit their jobs, we seem to be in need of a new one.

Working on leaving loads of things behind her, and trying to make this one of them. Help, I think I am growing up! ;-)
