- Polite? Logical? Compromise??
- Say, does anybody actually know where Booth postings demonstrating
- these characteristics appeared? I don't recall seeing 'em in t.a. Of course,
- news delivery at this site was interrupted for a bit, so maybe I missed the
- kid's change of heart.
- Or maybe this is just another load of dingoes kidneys...
- In any case, he's better off in alt.fan.rush-limbaugh. The Rushies
- are less likely to flame him for being self-righteous and smug, since they
- seem to enjoy that sort of thing.
