	First off, I sometimes forget how little of my personal sarcasm
carries over into my posts... esp. when some readers are bent on taking
nearly everything written as a serious comment.

	While most of my response is via email, there are a few things
I'd like to straighten out here.      

	My name is NOT 'Ms. Kitten' or 'Ms. Psycho Kitten' or any other
variation that you happen to dream up (and my 'you' I mean everyone).  
My name is Miss Angela M. Watson and most used alias is Psycho Kitten. 
My title is 'Miss' not 'Ms.'   My name appears in my .signature and 
should always appear in my article headers somewhere so there is no excuse
for refering to my by the wrong name (and doing so will be taken as a 
deliberate insult).   Neither of those names (or any of my other nicknames) 
are sexual in any way.

	Been a while since you watched Mister Rodger's neighborhood???
(Yes, it is _still_ on.)  My "Can you say 'hypocrite' boys and girls?"
was a blatently obvious play on his style of introducing new words to his
audience.

	I don't flame (or pseudo-flame as I did) out of anger or a
need to control... I do it out of sheer annoyance.  I have rarely been 
angered by anything on the net but I am sometimes annoyed by those who
come off as the saviour type (whether they intend to or not).  That goes
for _all_ the groups I read, not just ASH.

	I don't recall anyone calling me tedious before... but then I
really don't care.  =)

	"mired in negativism"... >laughing fit<  Please tell this to
my friends this semester!!!  They insist that I'm a 'sweet' person and
I can't get them to believe that 'sweet' is not a good description of me.
I have my cycles (which should be obvious by now)...  

	I always get a good laugh when someone says I express so much of
my emotions in my posts... Believe it or not, I express very little of
my personal thoughts on the net (I must stop thinking so much)...  I
keep much of my personal details out of my posts, so I don't see how someone
could think I was wonderful at spilling my guts on the net.  (But then,
I swore up and down that I did poorly on an exam a few weeks ago and it
turns out I aced it.)   What I post is _less_ than those who can talk to
me in person can hear about.

	I don't post 'to get the attention I need'.  Since there is no
way for you to know me (unless you talk to me at length in person), there
is _no_way_ you can guess/know what I may think/feel or why I think/feel
it.  No ASHer has that kind of information about me.

	My venting is not a true representation of my personality.  While
I might come off as a 'negative thinker' in ASH, I obviously don't act that
way all the time or my associates here wouldn't think I'm so "sweet".

	Time to destroy more _Lemmings_...

	aka Psycho Kitten
	aka Echo W. Who
