I am new here, and I was wondering, why are there still stupid, immature
people on line who have the audacity, here in the 90's, to still call
people a "cocksucking faggot".  I mean no offense here, but please, stop
using such offensive words!  Thanks....   As I said, I am new here, and am
a libertarian/anarchist who wants the government to butt out of our
lives...I am very interested in privacy, and am also against censorship.  I
hope there are others out there who feel as I do, but if not, I guess I'll
find out I'm on the wrong place!!   :-)   Anyhow, I hope you can welcome a
Cincinnati goth who lives in Oklahoma...thanks!!....Amy

The technical term is "homosexual panic".  It refers to people who have 
grown up being constantly told that they should hate homosexuals, yet
are constantly waking up at 3am from a dream in which they were taking
a nine inch cock up their ass and loving it.

It's related to the fact that most rapists are actually terrified of
women.

As always, consider the source.

Delirium:  There must be a word for it ... the thing that lets you know that
           TIME is happening.  IS there a word?
Sandman:   CHANGE.
Delirium:  Oh.  I was AFRAID of that.

<grin> You are probably going to want to see if the mail program you
use will allow you to sort all the mail from this list into a separate
folder. There is so much of it that you will probably start to lose
track of your personal mail.

Apart from that, there are a number of people on the list who very
very rarely ever contribute anything worth reading. There are two
approaches to this: you can learn to recognise the posts and ignore
them, as I do, or again if you mail software allows it, you can get it
to automatially discard posts from these people.

If you can stand the list, you might well get into some interesting
discussions. Give it a try for while though.

Any chance of you cutting the size of your signature down a bit?
