List,

    The reason Americans talk about baseball is that
it provides a subject of endless discussion without
talking about SEX, POLITICS, or RELIGION. If
America hadn't invented baseball, we would never
have survived as a nation. In a pinch, meteorites
will also serve.

This crap is uncalled for on the met-list. Your fourth grade summation of
political cosmology is pretty trite. Take it to the atheistic commy pinko
list you were spawned in :)

machine...
