But I disagree with what you asy about sexual orientation. > That usually helps when it is discussed and repression isn't good. Certainly sounds like something Sue P. would say. The listowner whose subscribers come sobbing to LSTOWN-L begging someone please to get them off her list as she won't let them off as they are horribly repressed and must have her help. I am proud to say I have gotten several off by forging mail when they have asked me to in desperation. Of course she probablly promptly resubscribed them, though I did caution them to get new addresses and most the ones I helped had done so, some even moved physically in hopes she couldn't find them (they had foolishly given out phone numbers and addresses). All this on a list supposedly for discussion of a singer's music. Yes, this is blunt and rude, has to be. Kick me off the list, if you want to, Nathan, Eric. You saw the pleas from her victims on this list couple of years ago, I wrote both of you about what was going on and you refused to do anything, though I backed it up with copies. You refused to do anything. I said nothing publically at the time but I'm saying it publically now. Please, Sue, do not tell me again how you can simply tell that someone is horribly repressesd and will committ sucide without your amateur psychology. Deliberate provocation to flame-war. Don't care, worth it to finally makie it public. Kick me off the list. Douglas
