  THE INCLUSION OF THIS RHETORIC WHILE REFERRING TO MY ORIGINAL ARTICLE
  COULD IMPLY THAT A) YOU ONLY QUOTED PART OF MY POSTING AND HENCE  B) I WOULD
  SUPPORT THE USE OF CIVILIAN FACILITIES BY THE GRENADIAN SOLDIERS.   UNLESS A
  READER GOES BACK TO MY ORIGINAL POSTING, THEY MAY GET THE WRONG IMPRESSION.
  
  ANYONE WHO POSTS A RESPONSE TO ONE OF MY ARTICLES WITH A POSSIBLE IMPLICATION
  THAT I NEVER UTTERED (NOR MIKE FOR THAT MATTER),  
  
          I S      G O I N G     T O     G E T     B U R N T   ! ! !

That's telling them j.r.!  I hope that everyone now knows better than to
introduce new facts when rebutting someone else. The poor, stupid netnews
readers will never be able to figure out who said what. To give an example,
if I say that the capitol of Granada is Columbus, Ohio, you are not permitted
to give any references or point out that Columbus is in the US, since
people will think that I specifically denied that. About all that you can
do is yell "It is not!!!".  This will require some self-control at first,
but it will all be worthwhile when we finally succeed in eliminating everything
resembling intelligent discussion from the net.
