the Crime they styl'd 'Anonymity.'

Barbara,

>Quail, now, I didn't say I wanted them off the list.

And as I stated, "metaphorically." I think it was a fair response to 
"get them off the road and home to bed."

>It's just last

Well, I cannot support some of that sexual innuendo; but I can 
understand some of Terrance and Robert's exasperation with Doug and 
the cause for such language. I have been guilty too of being quite 
impolite. However, Otto, myself, and Paul had nothing to do with that 
other than the fact we all think Doug is a bully and so on.

>I just thought maybe....oh, never mind again...Do what you want.  I'll learn

I have no idea what you mean. Do you want me to condemn Terrance for 
calling you a creep? Or yell at Jbor for talking about cum-shots? 
Well, they are big boys, just like Doug when he tells me to go "jerk 
off," and you when you talk about "swallowing jism." I think everyone 
around here in the D-List Flamewars can certainly be nasty on 
occasion.

>PS: Tell me you didn't mean, "healthy disagreement."

Yes; outside the name calling, there is a lot of healthy 
disagreement. With your politics and interpretations of Pynchon.

>PS: Thanks for telling 'em I'm not Doug.

Sure. But I'm not so sure that you aren't Kurt!
