Earlier BRUCE322@DELPHI.COM  said this to RON BOUTWELL about Bruce!:

B>Message-ID: <01HDFHUMN8SY8ZG4BW@delphi.com>
B>HI! Got an email from you with only the message of "Bruce!" I don't
B>know if you ment to send more. I was responding to your "Tiger's Paw"
B>message. Thanks.


When I asked you about "the tiger's paw" it was a practical joke.  Masons will
not fall for it since you and I both know there IS NO TIGER'S PAW IN MASONRY.
There is of course the paw OF ANOTHER ANIMAL.  A Mason will remind me of
that (as many have) and they will get into the net subsequently without
 researching
the question.  An anti-Mason will spend hours dredging through all of the
nonsensical material they have in print looking for "tigers paws" so they can
answer my question in an attempt to immitate a Mason.  They were the targets
of the joke.

I'm very happy to report that every Mason so far who has told me there is no
tiger's paws in masonry has also been wise enough not to correct my mistake
and send it out over the Internet, even in private.  My faith in Masons has
been compounded (hahaha).
