never mind napster, I think the whole internet idea and mailing lists is a decadent one. I remember the good old days when pen-pals wrote to each other in pen and ink, on paper, we had to walk miles to the stationery shop, and then miles to the post office to deliver the letter. You could only communicate with one or two people and you had to wait for days for a response - gave you time to consider your replies though I can tell you. Sure it was hard, but the inconvenience and the time spent meant the content of the letters was so much more heartfelt, worthwhile and sincere - sorry to be a 'letters' snob, but I am. I can't stand it when people boast in public how they've sent 'a quick e-mail' - shallow, vacous fools, they don't know the solemn dignity of the old pen and paper for people who 'really mean it man'. "[someone said] something about intolerance...well, what have you shown me?" It would be inconsistent for a tolerant person to tolerate an intolerant one. That's the point of tolerance and liberalism. America as I understand it is founded on these principles - pre-Bush inaugural at least. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
