I just pasted a copy of one post into a letter in my name and said it was a 
copy of a newsgroup post. No harm in that, was there? ( being anyone could have 
read the post here anyway ) I also invited him to read the thread, which I 
don't know if he can do or not, depending on how high tech he is. 

I don't make assumptions about people who look like they're from down on the 
farm, because many such people have really gotten into computers nowdays. We 
were at Best Buy in Aurora one year, around the 3rd week of January, and they 
had almost NO software on the shelves. I asked why, and was told that the folks 
from the stock show had come into town and bought it all up. Talk about blowing 
away stereotypes.

Sounds like it wouldn't make any difference being she's a rabid anti 2nd 
amendment civil rights socialist authoritarian anyway. 

Wasn't it you who just said that if there's any chance of it passing, she has 
to be bypassed?

Panick all the chicken littles who are willing to give up all their freedom for 
false promises of safety.

And that's probably JUST my opinion. I could be wrong. :)
