[Rhodes22-list] Deregulation and Da List

[Herb Parsons]

Elle,

You know what? Kiss off. I did nothing to "throw water" on this. Some 
ass on here (and yes, it was ass-like behavior, if you don't like it, 
don't play) pulled his favorite "you're the bad guy" routine by bringing 
up the racism tag.

I've seen a lot of BS on here the past few days, started to spout off, 
and then thought "nah, why bother". However, if someone DOES choose to 
"bother", they should expect a response. That's what "discussions" are 
about.

For those of you that simply want a podium to espouse your views 
unchallenged, I submit you're in the wrong playground.

I hate the thought of Rummy leaving. But he's a big boy, I suspect he 
knows exactly what he's doing by now. (I also suspect he's kinda feeling 
a little embarrassed at over-reacting, I know I would).
