}I did, by restoring your text, thereby changing your *bon mot* into
}a *mal mot*.  Funny, PatricKK pulled the same selective deletion.
}Birds of a feather flock together, like minds think alike, and all that.

Huh?  Look, Peter, I often (as in right now) read with a laptop and a 1200
baud modem.  My deletions have far more to do with time involved in 
seeing something scroll at 1200 baud or the refresh rate of my not-so-
state-of-the-art lcd screen, which isn't even backlighted.  As far as
Patrick and I thinking together, perhaps, but I would imagine we have
quite different reasons for deletions.  BTW, do you think anyone is 
fooled, gratified, or otherwise entertained by your spelling of Patrick's
first name?  Are you afraid to lose one of your Brownie Points if you 
add another "K"?

}Son, lots of things sound like whining to you, when a pro-lifer does
}them.  Grow out of it.

I'm not your son, you aren't hardly old enough.  I don't consider you
a pro-lifer at all.  I consider you a pro-legislator.  Whether or not
I think pro-lifers whine, I >know< that you do.  

}>Nyikos, you are a damned idiot, and I may be too, but at least I can
}>admit it.

}You are not an idiot.  You are a clown with a high IQ, from the looks
}of it.  I used to think you are a well-meaning clown, but you are
}getting to look more and more like Batman's nemesis, the Joker, with
}each flaming post.

}Have you made any cracks about Suzanne's religious beliefs this year?

Is this one of those "Have you stopped beating your wife?  Answer
Yes or No." type questions?  I don't have a copy of Batman to check,
so could you tell me if one of the things the Joker does is make
cracks about religions beliefs?  BTW, could you email me an example
of what you consider to be one of my "flaming" (your words) posts?
Hint:  it won't have a re: in it -- that stands for "regarding"
or "reply" or something like that.
