If Baker will lay off the Larry > type, I will lay off the Dalecki type. I don't know about you and Mike, but the things I say are facts about Larry... ....*are* facts about Larry. Period.

"Dalecki type", "Tex type", "golfer's who drink beer are alcoholics" Just how many generalizations are taught in primary school in Mississippi ? Tex

I didn't direct it at you Rob. Hence, "not directed at you." I observe this sort of thing among many people, not just in rsg. -- Chris Bellomy C-List Charter Member http://clist.org/

Last night, I was watching a Nightline special on Huckabee as he discussed Bush's response after 911, basically putting all countries on notice that they are "either with us or against us." This goes against human nature which is reflected in national pride. No individual, no sovereign state, likes to be told what to do. Bush would have been better to say, "America has been attacked without provocation. Will you help us bring the criminals to justice?" This gives people/nations the opportunity to do the right thing vs. having it mandated. Back to the question at hand. Rob....you're basically telling Baker what to do. Furthermore, Dalecki and Larry are apples and oranges. Dalecki rarely posts here during the off season. Even then, he usually sticks with golf topics. The coven (c-list) is probably disbanded. If not, it isn't relevent. RSG is past it's prime and will likely die a natural death, like most unmoderated usenet groups. It's certainly not worth getting emotionally involved. -Greg

My offer was if Baker lays off Larry I'll lay of Dalecki. |
