     In reply to those who believe that freudian crap, wherein we all are
capable of such horrors, I wish to say two things:


       1)  As the father of a little girl, I can definitely say that such
a crime is completely beyond me(though perhaps murder to prevent it is not).
I think that any parent feels as I do, if not then they don't deserve to
be a parent.


       2)  ****FLAME ON****  If you think that you are capable of such a crime,
then you have already taken the first step in committing that crime.  If you
think that it is normal for someone to be capable of performing this act, then
you must also think it is normal to actually go out and do it!!  Certainly,
if you believe freud!! But perhaps the discussion of the dangers of true belief
in freud is best left for another time, after this stuff about JoJo has died
down. ****FLAME OFF****


     I've also started to note an anti-New Jersey attitude creeping into the
discussion.  Having been born and raised in N.J. I know the same attitude.
This attitude is best characterized as anti-urban N.J.  Yes folks, there is
such a thing as rural N.J.!!  I spent most of my life there.  Perhaps someone
in the Defense Dept. can help us out in N.J. and nuke the urban areas!  The
person who said that "only in Joisey ..." has hit the nail almost squarely
on the head.  After all, most of the people live in the urban centers.  I can
sympathize with western Canadians, who wonder at how hairbrained the central
government in the east is.  In N.J., even if your nearest neighbor is a half
mile away, you can't burn your leaves in fall.  The state ass embly is based
on population, and some clean air freaks canvassed the cities.  Five rural
townships with power plants were recently ripped off to the tune about $20M.
The legislature decided that this money should be more evenly distributed
among the population.  In my home township, this ripoff was about $3M.  This
revenue had been used to make our elementary one of the best in the nation
around '65-'70.  Now some lazy welfare bums are lining their pockets with our
money!  Three million doesn't sound like much nowadays, but for a township of
about 30,000 or so, you can see the magnitude of the theft.  So, instead of
joking about New Jersey, joke about the morons in Trenton or Newark.
