RE: no more guns! please!     I have a life thank you. That is why I hardly
ever have the time or the inclination to patrol the threads searching for
things I do not like and then complaining about them when they are found.
     During my time on the list I have found many threads to contain subject
matter that I do not find useful to me or subjects to which I can make no
meaningful contribution to aid others. There have even been some boreing
subjects of interminable duration that have prompted thoughts along the
lines of, "Jeeze, these guys are STILL at it!!". I suppose it may even be
possible that other folks can read some of MY posts and catagorize them
under similar headings. I am at a loss to explain their puzzeling lack of
taste but it takes all kinds to make a world and to each his own.
     In any case my ego is not so great that I think such subjects as are
not of interest to me personally cannot or should not be of interest to
others. I would hope that others would have a similar attitude but
expierence has shown me that such hopes are in vain. "They Who Watch and
Criticize" will, I fear, forever be with us. I suppose they find some kind
of happiness and satisfaction in tracking down and complaining about every
vestage of that which they personally find boreing but it is confusing when,
after doing so, they also complain about how much time they have spent doing
it and what a waste they consider the spending of that time to be.
     Oh well, like I said, it takes all kinds.

       "Easter"?!?!?!? "All that is holy"?!?!?!?!?!? Is this an attempt to
  revive the religion threads from a month or so ago that so foully violated
  the purity of the Vanagon list and so roused the righteous wrath of thread
  police?
      Have a care thou heretic for the words ye utter have no source in the
  sacred writ of either the Bentley or the Haynes. REPENT ye now lest thy
  blasphemies fall under the all-seeing gaze of "They Who Watch and
  Criticize"!
