 Hi folks,
I have to say, that as much as I hate the venom that we have witnessed onthe
metlist, if Proud Tom is the result, then it will all have been worth it!
Personally I haven't a clue who is responsible - I'd love to think it was
Bernd, but somehow I just can't imagine it, but if it was - wow!!!


One day, I hope, I'll find out - but I won't be telling anyone!

Good luck to you - sort of a Lone Ranger type of figure, isn't he?



Hi Ho Saliva!

Hi Y'all,
Charlie, you may have something here. I also heard Proud Tom
is actually Bernd. All that contributing of priceless information got
to be just too much, seeing as how most of us are such jerks, he finally
let go and gave us all a good laugh at ourselves....
But, others maintain it is not the honorable Bernd at all, but,
instead, of all people, it is Art. Yes, Art, the originator and revered
benefactor of this very list. He got so tired of booting fools from the
list and dealing with all of us that he just let loose with scathing
humor aimed at the most obnoxious of us (he has a BIG article on
Michael Farmer being prepared, even now).
However, others say it is neither Bernd nor Art, but _________
who is really PROUD TOM!
Best wishes, Michael

Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the
public and have no self.
