Larry, mate,
A) this isn't a chat room. I'm not insulting anyone on BOC-L
and B) I've been on this list for gee, I forget now exactly, but in the
4 year plus area. Most of the regulars know me and my rubbish posts
pretty well.

I can *always* expect a high standard of correspondence on BOC-L, that
is why it remains the one constant of my net life. But its not IRC.

I was insulting the corpses I had just attempted to enliven with my wit.
On BOC-L a question like "Blake or Wordsworth?" would draw half a dozen
interesting responses, on chat it gets "Karma, U R nutz."
