Dennis,



You said:





>  Only jerks and cowards use remailers.



I have one eensie weensie correction to your otherwise astute and accurate

observation:  I think it's people who tend to be jerks but are also

cowardly that do it!                                           ^^^^

                                     

Even when I do not necessarily appeciate certain posts - and differ in

opinion from them (even sometimes GREATLY), I can ignore what I wish to

ignore so easily it's not even funny!  But to hide in the bushes and throw

stones is something that's impossible to ignore - it's VERY offensive, and

demonstrates complete lack of character.



If that person really did unsubscribe from the list, it'll likely be

his/her loss - not ours!  (But they probably didn't really unsubscribe -

just craving to be noticed - even if anonymously, I'd guess).  In fact,

it's probably why he/she did it anonymously!  So he/she could stay on the

list without anyone being able to say "Hey, what are YOU doin here?" :) 



Probably not able to make people laugh, and resents some who can (and do)

on this list ... kinda sad really.  Once again - if you don't like it grow

up and ignore it!  Don't want to watch a show on TV?  Don't tune it in!

Simple!  Don't want to be subjected to the "stuff" on this list,

unsubscribe, but keep your juvenile, anonymous and gutless blusterings to

yourself.  The least you might have done was warn us in the subject line

..



okokok - I feel MUCH better now!



Keep the humor comin!



Hey - and who was that person complaining about wishing he'd never even

heard of Miatas much less bought one because of some lost business because

of this list - was that for real?  His/her business mail must not have

been all that crucial if he let it go so long that the mailer got jammed.



So it becomes voluminous!  Do what some sucessfully do - look it up - it's

all posted there to choose to read or ignore - don't have to subscribe to

the list, and even though I'm fairly new here, my options have been made

clear to me by the great guys who put all this together!



Keep the variety comin' folks - it IS the spice of life you know :)



Kathy

(and Scarlett who says "Even though Kathy and I are all-woman, we both

are 'man enuough' to speak out identifiably.")



P.S.  Tommy Grimes = My Hero!!!  Loved your letter!
