	Having just read we13!prg's suggestion that I become the moderator
of the methods section of net.suicide, I must say that I am very flattered.
At this time I do not believe that there is sufficient mail traffic in this
newsgroup for a moderator (let alone a sub-moderator). In the event that one
is ever needed, however, I would be proud to serve. My qualifications are as
follows:

	1) I saw the movie "Ordinary People" and my little sister
	   looks a little bit like Mary Tyler Moore.

	2) Whenever I hear of somebody trying to take a high-dive
	   off the 12'th floor or trying to suck bullets out of the
	   barrel of a .38, I rush out to be one of the crowd
	   yelling, "Do it! Do it!"

	3) I personally know of a man who was soooooo despondent
	   when he got a Rubick's cube and his eight year old son
	   was better at solving it than he was that he built a
	   giant motorized version of it, strapped himself to it,
	   and twisted himself to death.

	4) Though I cannot personally try all the methods sent to me,
	   I am in charge of a group of Explorer Scouts who would be
	   perfect for testing these methods on.


	In closing, I feel that net.suicide needs a better image if it is to
remain a prosperous news group. Perhaps we could put out a weekly digest with
a catchy name like "Dead Letter Digest" and distribute it to the ARPA net
(from what I hear the military is very interested in death and destruction).
Perhaps we could get a grant from (dare I dream it?) the National Association
of Funeral Home Directors! Well, let it be known that if our volume goes up
a bit that all my life I've been dying to get a chance to do something like
this, so get our circulation up (or down if you're into wrist slitting) and
maybe WE can have a big digest just like all the biggies on the net. Keep
those cards and dead.letter's coming in.
