    G'Day to you too John,

  I understand what you're saying. I'd rather stay quiet, believe me. It's
much easier than taking the harpoons from the haters. The problem is, if no
one confronts this type of hypocritical nonsense then the List just becomes
a bullying pulpit to be used by the ignorant haters.
  So, I speak out against this nonsense. Except for a few exceptions, I
gave up with making friends on the List a long time ago. It's just not that
important. Taking an honorable stand is more important than being in with
the "in crowd".
  Does that make sense?

  Greg Lindh

G'Day Greg and List,
I quote you "I keep reading about how this list is supposed to be just "all
about meteorites", then someone like you prints something hateful and
strictly political and almost no one says a word. "

This is the reason why many don't reply. It only takes one to correspond to
start the ball rolling and at last count, I've received 32 comments on this
particular issue. If you hadn't have responded, it would have just drifted
off. Nothing against you, just stating some facts.

Cheers
John

I thought the day would never come. May the Haag indict him and BIG DICK
cheney for war crimes.
