Peter,

Quit expecting rationality from Trisha.  I have.  She tends to use the
psychological maneuver known as projection -- defending against a charge
by charging others with the same offense.  Thus, she replied to my comment
that politicians are two-faced (a rather self-evident statement!) by
calling me a liar.   And she responds to criticisms of Tricky Dicky's
con.aquaria hijinks by leveling charges against rec.aquaria.
