Monty Python weighs in on 9-11

[Otto]

Barbara,
I had 15 unsent messages concerning 9/11 before my machine broke, now I'm
already up to 23 again. I am *that* polite not to say everything I think in
public. And I'm definitely too polite to tell America "the day after" that
it's all just karma.

I wish we all would think a little bit more in advance how our posts might
be received, especially if they're NP.

Seems as if I missed all the funny parts in the Jones-article. From the
"arguments" he has used I have the impression of having heard them all
before. Maybe he was simply not "biting" enough.

Do you have got PowerPoint or something alike on your machine? You will need
it (plus some good sense of sick humour):

for a "good" cause?  Not even you're that polite, Otto. So you didn't like
the Terry Jones piece--give us something "strong" then...
