"Thanks" for the scathing criticism on my post about off-list
harassment. I wish people would stop putting words in my mouth. I
have a very dry sense of humor that sometimes people don't understand. I
really think it causes a negative reaction in some. Oh well, I just sit
back and chuckle.
I'm going to just start sending poetry, gushing kudos and nonsensical humor
and keep my thoughts to myself.
Glad you're feeling better.

Didn't you say
1. "Some narrow-minded
people believe differing opinions are a direct insult. They erroneously
assume that the author of these"
yet if they differ from your's their
narrow minded
2. and
something to the effect " thinking like that you must be a
republican"
again if there not of your political mind set there
wrong
3. "One of many emails
received off-list "
if you received so many e-mails,,,,,,,,
what does that tell you,,,,, maybe it's your opinion that's not
appreciated
4 .one pays for speaking out or trying to invoke some discussion.
Some narrow-minded people believe differing opinions are a direct
insult.

discussion'
often cause
problem?????????
Greg from
what I have seen so far you have way to much knowledge and experience to waste
your time on negitave things after all it was your story that got me to try
sinemet,and I feel much better thank you.I haven't got the chance yet to get
your info. on ssi.as of yet, but am looking forward to it. I guess what I'm
trying to is " lighten bro" it ain't all that bad. If the sun comes up make
ther best of the day , if it don't then you don't have a dam thing to worry
about cause the ball game is over.

I won't reveal who this is from, but this is
the price one pays for speaking out or trying to invoke some
discussion. Some narrow-minded people believe differing opinions are a
direct insult. They erroneously assume that the author of these
opinions holds those beliefs. I guess it takes all kinds.

One of many emails received off-list:
"As quite as this mail list can
get, it seems that you are the only one
that has a problem with the views
and opinions of others. Is that a part
of being democratic?
Of course it is not. I felt like saying that in
response to your
insult to me. Are your views the only ones that matter
to
you. Rita posted a great "opinion" and there you go with your
zingers
again! I'd suggest that you lighten up and let some other
opinions into
your little
mind!"
