To answer your questions: (1) I didn't see any such thing. I don't even know who was at search champs, aside from my buddy George. I don't live and breathe the fame, nor do I take notes about who has achieved special distinction. I also don't read the industry rags on a daily basis... I just happened to stumble upon it that day. (2) Take responsibility for what you publish. I'm bad at creating headlines... graywolf helps me sometimes... I wouldn't go tossing the pan back to him though when the heat got too hot. You published it, you go head to head over using it. That said, I don't really care who wrote the headline... headlines are meant to summarize the thoughts of a post in a sensational way... and those pompous, better than you opinions were yours. Your content and general "I'm better than you attitude" and opinions on "blackhats" are what I took offense to. Bring it Shari... if you have something to say to me or my "sadness", come and bring it. rae@sugarrae.com is my IM and email. My phone is 519-546-9200 and I'll be at SMX if you'd like to do it in person. I don't care what book you wrote or what degrees you have... when I see bullshit, I'm going to call it. Sorry CK. Delete if you must because admittedly, your blog wasn't the place it should have been done.

I think she fully illustrated some of the hypocrisy that exists in this industry. I don't think that's a good thing. (1) Where was her indignation when someone else (another Microsoft Search Champ) labeled all SEOs as worthless shady criminals, and specifically some of her colleagues who were at those meetings? (2) I didn't write that headline -- someone else did, though I saw the tongue-in-cheek humor in it. Frankly, I would love to see Rae or anyone else who didn't like that headline go head-to-head with the person who actually wrote it. I'll bring popcorn and beer. I don't stereotype all black-hat practitioners (for lack of a better term). Never have, but you will believe what you want to believe. If you could not say her "rant" any better, well. Honestly, I think that is pretty sad statement about yourself. Hi there-
