University of Texas????  University of TEXAS???
ha ha ha ha ha pretty funny, Wendy.  
The proximity of a medical school has nothing nothing nothing to 
do with it, dear.

Electronic Lust Object????

ha ha ha ha ha  Pretty funny, Wendy, especially coming from 
*you* of all people.

Hey, Greg, guess what, Wendy here has just promoted you to my 
Electronic Lust Object, you lucky thing you.  Wasn't that just
so sweet and nice of her, I do declare.  If you will think back
a few days, Wendy, I think you will remember that it was you 
who said that the only female attention Greg could get was by
responding to your attacks on him.  You are, of course, entirely 
free to interpret Greg's replies to you as sexual advances, but
please do not include me in your simplistic view of net.inter-
relationships.

I have no idea who is right in this case and frankly like most
of the net I really don't care one single little bit whether
Greg is right or Matt is.  However I've always considered Matt 
to be extraordinarily adept at defending himself and I really
do not understand why you jumped in with all this talk of degrees 
in the first place.  Greg, who is still in graduate school, has 
at least had the grace and good sense not to try and defend his 
postion by spouting off about his own credentials, which are quite 
impressive, by the way.
