Dear Steven,

You're sweet...but that way lies madness, I think.  Anyway, dealing
with you genuinely nice folks isn't remotely like what the article is
talking about.  But thanks for the thought.

Yours,
d mod

ps - not from d mod - if one of you rich jive turkeys wanted to buy
me a present just because you lust after my beautiful body, I hear
gold cigarette lighters are out and automatic transmissions are in
this year.  It wouldn't get you anywhere (and I'd seriously question
your taste) but I'd say thank you very nicely and give you referrals
to a couple of good shrinks I know. ;-)
