Subject:      Re: gas tax

Greetings,

There are disparities in gas prices from state to state, since states
levy their own taxes on gas.  In Kentucky, I now pay less than 99 cents
per gallon.  Today, In Ohio, I paid 1.06.  My biggest expense during our
recent trip to Canada was fuel.  In the remote regions of Nova Scotia,
prices were more than 2.50 a gallon.

Comments: To: English Language Discussion Group <WORDS-L@uga.cc.uga.edu>

Bayla,

Thank you for your well-reasoned and sensible commentary on the VMIers and
freedom of speech. It pains me to say that I side with Jim Thomas and
Marty Rosen on anything, but like them, I am a Constitutional conservative
and a free-speech advocate. Now, apparently, the VMI situation has
resolved itself, presumably by some senior officer at VMI restricting
Niteman's and his pals' access to Words-L.

One thing I had to wonder when the VMI kids were "quiet deleted" is how
many times Natalie might have wished to delete me, or perhaps others, but
didn't because of some perception that it couldn't be gotten away with.
I'm Le Pig, right? You can't mess with Le Pig! Of course the truth is that
it would be all too easy to mess with me or anyone else. But she doesn't.
Why, then, the VMIers?  Were they worth less to the group? [This also
raises meta-questions such as "Who owns Words-L? but they're best saved
for later.] I can think of several list regulars whose postings I have
found more offensive and aggravating from time to time (and I only called
for Galmin to be expelled twice, so there). But they were never banned.
Again, why VMI?

There is a little tradition in this country called "due process," which
allows an accused person to have a chance to address the charges brought
against him, or at least to hear that there *are* complaints about him.
When we overlook due process and begin to restrict people's speech based
on mores and folkways, we cease being a forum and commence being a church.

Note that I am not saying that assholes should be given candy treatment,
that flamewars should not exist, or that we shouldn't be allowed to
express the opinion that someone should shut up, or leave, or stay or
<kiss my foot>. There are many "fair play" ways of changing behavior that
don't involve unilaterally removing someone from the list. Niteman and his
buddies will not be back to see us; that much is certain. Right now they
are probably as far from a computer terminal as any human can possibly be.
But there will be a next time, and how will we respond then?

-abh

Even after 45 or so years following the game (though admittedly not at

amazed at some of the stats they come up with....and to think that they
did all this shit BEFORE computers, as well as since....

Last nite the weird one to me was.....

Tied for greatest number of consecutive hitless at bats with runners on
base, in post season play.  (was 22....did Bonds make 23 or more?  I didn't
notice)

Now the record would of course be different for NLCS play, or CS play,
or World Series play, or regular season, or for TOTAL (not limited to
any period...maybe even over two seasons...) etc.

strange....and then of course the record could be (and probbly is)
further qualified for day/nite, grass/artificialturf, lh/rh pitchers, etc...

Sort of the ultimate test for Crosstabs function in SPSS.....

I don't think we have a local Goodwill Industry.  But we have Salvation

Speaking of good will, has anybody ever done a study of sign-stealing by
Republicans vs sign-stealing by Democrats?  Why do I have the feeling that
Righteous, Family-Value-Minded Republicans promote theft?  Could it be that
the Clinton-Gore sign I struggled with for an hour to put up last week was
stolen last night?  Like my "Wayne Dowdy for U.S. Senate" sign, which was
stolen several years ago.  Good, ole family values.  I guess they take the
children along on sign-stealing expeditions for educational benefits.

entitlement.  But now, with new unsubsidized GSL (Stafford) students can
borrow the entire entitlement, without having to meet financial need
requirements.  Ought to do wonders in the next few years in increasing

Ausbrook made explicit claims about Gore's position, and your previous

is demonstrably wrong. Gore makes no such claim in his book as you
(and others) attributed to him that I can find.  Perhaps I'm wrong,
and more careful readers of Earth in the Balance will find it. It's
also worth pointing to the lists paralogicians, such as Ausbrook, that
calculating a cost and holding a given tax-paying body responsible for
the cost are not quite the same thing.

Ausbrook previously sniped to Marty:

Ah, someone else who remembers the dialogue!  Yes, I knew it was Michael
Caine's first...he was great!  I had seen _Zulu_ MANY times before I ever
saw _Zulu Dawn_, although I had done some reading on Rorke's Drift and
Islandawanda by that time...I'm glad to have seen it, but for repeat
viewing, it's back to Caine and Baker.
