			Summary of net.suicide

	Activity has been light this month.

	There was an impassioned and closely reasoned article by
	nsc!chuqui attempting to show that suicide is not heroic
	but cowardly, as if these were the choices.  (Fundamentally,
	suicide is a mode of humor, and anyone who fails to grasp
	that will always fail to analyze it correctly.  Perhaps
	this is why nsc!chuqui makes no progress beyond his premises.)

	There was a puzzling note from the ubiquitous rabbit!jj
	wherein he evidently claimed to be me.  Those who enjoy
	reading about adolescence may find it interesting.

	Finally, there was a poem submitted by stolaf!petersoa,
	written by a teen-age suicide (poets are so young these
	days!).  Those who enjoy reading about adolescence may
	find it interesting.  I think most will tend to side with
	the teacher on this one, as far as the situation is
	explained.  There ARE atandards, after all.  What if
	everybody drove on whatever side of the road they liked,
	with no respect for the feelings of those who follow the
	rules, or spelled words any old way that seemed convenient,
	like the British?

	Looking forward to lighter activity in March, as more of
	us can get outside.

	Nothing from mincemeat.
