Brent's lament

[Simon Bryquer]

Brent --

You're not alone. I suggested a while back that people stop responding to
Mr.Millison and his waif.  But it seems most people on this list cannot
resist and therefore they deserve the results.

I suspect Barbara might be a teenager, even a pimply boy teenager trying to
be provocative and just wanting attention, again if she isn't she should
consider becoming one in order to be in tune with her wayward babbling and
we could overlook it once and for all.

While I'm at it, I do owe Mr.Millison a apology regarding irregardless.

The way the e-mail was formatted it appeared as if you, Mr.Millison, were
addressing these words to Rich rather than quoting him.
