Strangely enough, I don't actually want to shut Don up at all. I want him to engage here on technical matters. I want him to share the things he knows, and learn some things he doesn't appear to know. And I want him to do all of that in the spirit of free, scientific, academically rigorous discourse that usually informs the technical discussions here. Meaning, I want him to forego the use of bullying legal intimidation before he starts.

Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to see Don become a regular poster here, one amongst his peers, just a poster amongst many, from whom we might or might not learn as time passes and the mood and subject allows.

But it won't happen, I suspect, because he's too busy claiming exalted guru status and thinking he's better than the rest of us.
