No, I did get the joke, I just didn't think it was funny.  I *do* remember the
thread some time ago of Perry being accused of being a Nazi because a well-
known Illinois Nazi has the same surname. I meant he was losing credibility
for indulging in childish games, not for meaning whatever he said literally.
I'd rather the pair of them just let it drop, instead of trying to outsmart
each other.

I didn't think it was funny, either - regardless of the motivation.  It was a
rude comment, regardless of the context.  I think someone owes someone else
an apology...

Ditto!  I also propose that the next person who continues this thread gets
sent a flame-mail from everyone else on this list who thinks this is silly.

So how about it?
