An admirable list owner. > I'm sorry you asked. I have many, many (I still have them on my old computer) emails that I sent Andreas. I got exactly no help at all. I knew that even if by some miracle I got on the list, my posts would be held. I wasn't going to go through that. I'm not saying Andreas isn't a good list owner. Just that he wasn't helpful to me. > But I suppose if one wanted to experience the thrill of being able to > write without taking personal responsibility for one's words, one might > not search out such help with much enthusiasm.

The atheism, the vegetarianism, the animal rights, the exercise, everything right down the line. I stopped short of the psychology because that would be too obvious. Even so, I committed hari kari, or thought I did, in response to Mike's post on pedophilia. So there is no way you can accuse me of cheap thrills. Iif you feel cheated, I'm sorry. Truly, truly deeply sorry. I'm a little surprised though, since Andy wasn't exactly your favorite person. I would think you'd be glad to see him go. For my part, I miss Andy terribly. He became real to me, as real as any real person. Now he's gone, as if he died, and at my hand.
