Rich,

I'm getting tired of this.  I was being humorous.  Humor -- have
you heard of it?

You pride yourself on being "rational," yet I've been unable to
carry on a rational debate with you, and I haven't seen anyone
else have better luck.

In net.singles, you can't discuss male/female roles without making
one personal accusation after another against me.  In net.music, if
a person disagrees with you, they're a snob, and in net.religion,
anyone who doesn't see things your way is less intelligent and/or
less rational than you are.

The one thing I've never seen you do is to discuss *ideas*, without
the personal slurs you're so fond of.  You, rational?  My ass...
