- Most definitely! But I can still understand the sentiment of Tom Stoddard who
- said that ``Our movement needs more than just anger. Larry has never gotten
- beyond that point.'' and from what is quoted in The Advocate one would really
- have to agree. He says some possibly valid things, but in SUCH a disagreeable
- way that it just rubs people the wrong way and they no longer listen to him.
-
- It's great to make suggestions and helpful hints but if you do it in such a
- way that no-one will ever listen to you, what's the point?
