[edit] vandalism?

There seems to be an issue about whether you wrote a chapter on masturbation for the Boy Scout handbook. I looked through the edit history but cannot quite pin down when it was inserted, and it looks like probable vandalism. Could you comment please? Sophy's Duckling 04:46, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Sophia--I know it sounds like an act of literary vandalism to say that I wrote a chapter on masturbation for the Boy Scout handbook, but that is the very first assignment the Boy Scouts gave me when I worked for them over a summer vacation. Howbloom 20:47, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
It does seem rather odd. o.O Sophy's Duckling 03:48, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
Sophia--hopefully our email exchange has taken care of this. Shifting usernames is confusing and I'd prefer not to do it. Is that ok? Howard Howbloom 20:51, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
As you provided proof you are Howard Bloom, you will not have to change your username. Sophy's Duckling 03:48, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
