I don't yell, but I do defend myself.

Hey guys,
Maybe you all should stop and think about all the drivel that has been on
this list recently. Very little MV content, but plenty of name calling and
the like.
Yes, I can delete the off topic threads. But, I have only so much time to
devote to reading my email. Wading through dozens of useless messages in
the hope of gleaning something helpful wastes my most precious commodity.
Pretty soon, this list is going to be 4 or 5 guys yelling at each other,
APB, the Dr., Sonny, and the book guy. The usual suspects. Not too long in
coming, I imagine.
It's funny, I know Cliff and he is about the most tolerant guy I know. It
ought to tell you something. You won't here it for the yelling, but you
ought to.

Correct, Mein Herr:
It's like being invited to a dinner party, and being told what to talk
about, and what not to talk about. I consider this forum an ongoing social
event, with members coming and going, whining, complaining, helping, getting
helped, etc. What a miserable place it would be if the only thing discussed
was (shudder) the way that O/D was applied 18 March, 1943, in Indiana.
Bring on the bitching, I say. Let's talk about anything we need to, in order
to make life here a little more interesting.
Oh, and by the way: Bush Bumper stickers:
"Let's not elect him this time, either."
"Let's defeat him, (again)"
"Let's lick Bush and lick Dick, and then lick Colin" (eeeeeuw)
