Kelly Bert on the fecundity of loggers: (Nov. 4 2000)
_______________________________________________________________________
Loggers and mill workers seem to have a hard time making such cognitive
leaps. Someone I know went up island to visit some relatives and heard
loggers mention that when they get laid off the first economy measure 
they
take is to pull the birth control pill amount out of the family budget.
She wanted to comment that 1 box of diapers would wipe out the "saving" 
for a month or 2, not to mention the ongoing maintenance costs, but
figured that even the most heavy duty logic would fail to make it thru 
the
skull of such fine specimens of the IWA membership. I assume that IWA
types would use paper diapers to support their industry.

(Kelly Bert then went on to discuss how his family does their laundry)

Kelly Bert inexplicably discussing his daughter's school work (the thread 
had nothing to do with this) Nov 5 2000:

My daughter achieved the "top
individual mark" in Victoria on the last Gauss Math tests. How are your
kids doing in becoming prepared for life in the information economy?
The quote above was taken from a private shool ad touting it's math team,
with specal mention for the student who tied my daughter's score. PR spin
is everywhere. A statement may be 100% accurate and still be very
misleading. "Top individual mark" indeed

From the same post - a passage which can only leave readers wondering how 
much the author had had to drink . . .

No, but that seems to be the only point that you can attack, and you 
don't want to talk about the many discredited claims of the clear cut 
crowd.
 
They've lied and accelerated cutting plans to deliberatly ruined areas in
the past to spite environmentalists trying t, but now they've reformed.
Gimme a break.

Would that include Mike Morton? Didn't his son get reported as one of the
good old boys who go around bashing protestors at night? Should I expect 
a visit?
