Both JR and BT need lessons in interpersonal relations. JR, while exercising his right to speak on behalf of his beliefs, should not have tried (and succeeded) to impose CENSORSHIP on the rest of the world. BT should have showed some compassion for a man obviously upset, instead he showed a lack of judgement by posting the now infamous joke. Brad & others, please don't lower yourselves in the fight against censorship by promoting censorship against JR. It would be like saying: "I'm totally against capital punishment, and anyone who is for it should be executed!" -- __/\__ ******************** __/\__ | starr@shuxd.att.com \ / * Michael L.
