Geeeeee, Joel, if I didn't know any better, I'd say you're just a
little-bit nonlinear about my writing that I "SUSPECTED" you of cheating.
I can understand how a paranoid psychotic needle-brained pinhead would 
react as you have.  :-)  Do you know the difference between stating 
suspicion and "claiming" that you "stuffed the ballot box?"  Apparently 
not.  May I humbly suggest that you attempt to improve your level of 
reading comprehension?  Note that there is a very distinct difference
between suspicion and accusation.  I didn't set out to hurt anybody's
feelings, but apparently people will read differently than what is 
literally written, and unfortunately that is pretty normal for many people.  

For those of you who are *incensed* over my *outrageous* conduct of merely
suggesting my suspicion, I would ask that you tolerate my behavior for the
sake of uncovering the complete truth.  I think that there is sufficient
reason to suspect that some ballot-stuffing has occurred; certainly not 
enough to change the outcome of the vote, but if I was the vote-taker, it
would piss me off that somebody was trying to cheat an allegedly democratic
process that I was trying to conduct in a fair manner.  I would like the
readers of news.groups to let prospective cheaters know that their conduct
is less than acceptable.  If you *really* feel that I'm way out of line,
I'm sure you will all let me know in your usual subtle manner.  :-)

Also, Joel, you continue to label me as a bigot, and now call me a liar.
No "suspected" here folks.  Tell me, Joel, exactly what LIE did I
perpetrate during the RMH RFD/CFV?  I can tell you that no matter how 
deeply you probe for one, you won't be able to pull one out of your ass.
All I did was bring a suspicion of vote-cheating into the light of 
news.groups, as the Guidelines state I can.  You can claim that you
didn't "stuff the ballot box", and I'll accept that.  I would like to 
hear from the other "Furr" to be really sure though, since you have
a tendency towards gross inaccuracy (as in "bigotry" and "lies").

Well, Joel the Lowly, if you ever head down to North Carolina, give me a
call.  I'll install the bash-plate with the gaffing hooks under my bike,
and we'll play tag for awhile.  After I've turned you into Furry Possum-food,
I'll buy you a beer.  Maybe then you'll understand how stoooopid you've been
calling me a bigot and a liar, and we can put all this stoooopid shit behind
us where it belongs.
