You might remember the Lance Dutson saga, involving a blogger and the State of Maine's tourism board (along with their rather clueless PR agency). Well, it seems that the ousted head of that department is trying to say "not me! I had nothing to do with that!" now. I just got this in email, from a woman by the name of Linda Hutchins:

It's kind of old now, but I happened on you site, and the misinformation that Dann Lewis sued Lance Dutson.

(Please read the beginning of the truth here:)

http://truthaboutlewis.blogspot.com

As a matter of fact, Dann and his wife, and a few contractors went to a Boston PR firm, who told them ABSOLUTELY NOT to sue Dutson. (They already knew that)

So they went back to thier [sic] hotel and called WKP. There were 4 of them sitting their on a conference call, every one yelling at Peter Warrn [sic] NOT to sue Dutson.

And I realize that it defies any knid [sic] of intelligent logic, but they DID sue him. They claim that the suit was filed ACCIDENTALLY by a law clerk , while his boss was on vacation. ( I dunno....)

I omitted the enclosed email from a WKP flack - it seemed to be strewn with hyperbole I could do without. In any event, I pass this on as a way of presenting what the people Dutson wrote about have to say for themselves; draw your own conclusions. I left the spelling and name mistakes (it's Peter Warren, not Peter Warm) from the original email as is. Note also that WKP hails from NYC, not Boston.
