I was planning on writing both of you today or tomorrow if buzzfeed decided to go ahead with their story after I 
wrote to them, but since they sent this to you here is what I was planning to forward.. namely my response to 
their email and their original email. I hope it helps. They have clearly decided in advance to try to smear me, 
and potentially other atheists (I found the remarks in their 'miscellaneous facts' telling in this regard), and I felt 
a detailed response to the false claims was important. If you want to discuss this further I am happy to. I am 
currently on a plane heading to phoenix. 
Thanks for forwarding.

my comments, if you do, either out of context, or incompletely, I am responding with an effort to be complete,

It is hard to know how to respond to a list of false and/or distorted allegations, along with misleading 
statements. I treat people I interact with with respect, and I work hard to support and mentor students, 
colleagues, and members of the general public, and this is supported by the institutions of which I am a part. I 
do not sexually harass
