I had no trouble at all seeing the extra quote marks showing what you wrote.

Kelley was not shy about writing what she wrote to begin with, so she had no
*motive* for doing what she is accused of doing. I think it is a mistake to
accuse her of attempting to make it appear as if you wrote the "f" word. It
should also be significant that she did not *use* the "f" word except as an
example.

I think it is profoundly unfair to Kelley -- particularly in a situation
like this -- to not give her the benefit of the doubt.  I would just as soon
believe you responded to her post in order to get her in trouble as I would
believe she tried to hide what she initially wrote.
