Glad to have you here. the more the merrier. Anyway, sometimes I get down on the old NFB'ers, but then sometimes I see some stupid news person saying things like just tonight, CBS news Bob Faw in California talking about is it right to put premes through hell to save a life. Anyway his bad example for the camera was a blind baby, who was saved, at the cost of his sight and a huge mmedical bill--hell I was a preme, I went through hell to see as long as I did, and that stupid fool on a national show acted as if I am not worth it. OK gang lets all getogather and have a group shout off. Then we will feel better, and its too bad they didn't just say the hell with me? Oh well, lifes not supposed to be fair anyway. If life were fair what would we watch without the war, cop, and soap-shows? Have fun, and I am not really as militant on NFB as I sound sometimes, I just ate people and organizations who take themselves too seriously--if you want to hear the same sentiments put best, watch the George Carlyn HBO comedy hour this month--its great. Later! -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!109!143.0!Al.Hoffman Internet: Al.Hoffman@p0.f143.n109.z1.fidonet.org
