Dear Rheal,

Mutlu is a narrow spectrum net.pest. If you cannot differentiate, let
alone understand what I stated was not in support of anything, then
I will gladly fit your pigeonhole so far as you are concerned and we 
need not bother one another, eh?

What is the difference between feeling everyone should hear your message,
Rheal, and feeling that some subset or "chosen few" should hear your
message?

The minute you post any article, you do so because you feel some group
should hear what you have to say. Where, in the realm, does one cross
the boundry between a subset, as you have done in crossposting, and the
"everyone" which seems to be "a bad thing" (tm.) ????
