	It is a sad sign when the supporters of Mondale/Ferraro revert
to calling Republicans "Nazis".  Name calling, especially when blatantly 
untrue, is more of an indictment against the name callers than those whose
names were sullied.  
	In fact, now that I think about it, Tim Sevener was calling me a
"Nazi".  I was at the convention, and I shouted "4 more years", "U.S.A.",
and "Reagan" along with the rest of the crowd.  The reason that I shouted
these slogans was not due to "Nazi" leanings on my part, far from it.  I 
shouted them because I overwhelmingly support Reagan/Bush over Mondale/Ferraro,
and because it was exciting to be at the convention.  I deplore the
genocide practiced by Nazi Germany.  I deplore the concept of a "master race".
I deplore those ideals which "Nazis" hold dear.
	Please Mr Sevener, don't use the methods used by tyrants of the past, 
the big lie, to try and achieve your goals.  I resent it, and many other people
resent it as well.
