Why 'NP'? That's the snide little quip you use all the time, isn't it, eg 
when addressing the alleged Playboy interview.

Let me address it by saying that I suggested having a GR group read, and 
before we could get it organised, Jody ran off with the thing, he and you in 
fact had a good old two-way discussion, then there was the fight about the 
Holocaust etc. I suggested we both wait (for people to catch up, get ready), 
and have section hosts, as I think D Morris pointed out their function is to 
keep the ball rolling. I was tolf to fuck off by Jdy. Hard man over the net 
isn't he? Then the Group Read gradually ran out of steam, pretty soon in 
fact, Jody disappeared, and that was that. It would have been nice, since 
JOdy insisted in prematurely starting the GR, if he'd stuck around a while. 
Basically his actions sabotaged any chance we had of getting the thing going 
properly.
