You have no need to encourage me to do what I would do naturally anyway.
What you asked me to do was get dirt on people you have a personal grudge
with; and I will not do that for you.

Your senses are in need of recalibration.

The sites you mention have been around for sometime; I'm sure if they

good or bad guys and your efforts of PI work are failing miserably.
