Awwww, Richie baby!  You really should show us the articles you're talking 
about.  I seem to have struck a nerve, to coin a phrase, if the
mail in MY mailbox can be used as a measure.  There are a few of us 
reasonable people around here who get tired of all the Richie-baiting and
Charlie-baiting, and ?teddy bear baiting?  

Anyhow, I didnt' say that ANYTHING was a fit subject for humor, now
did I?  (In case you aren't reading clearly, which seems common,
the question is rhetorical, I said NOTHING about the appropriateness
of anyone's humor. In fact, I was quite careful to make it clear
that I was NOT commenting on humor, or on appropriatness, or
on the subject at all!)  So, since you're so straightforward and honest,
why do you say that I thought ANY particular subject was fit for humor?

What I said was that your continued flaming and counterflaming was
utterly counterproductive, regardless of the subject, and that I was tired
of seeing BOTH sides of it.  

Of course, since I don't hold 100% to your
viewpoint, that MUST mean that I have exactly the opposite one,
eh?  Isn't that just what Jerry Falwell thinks, too?  Maybe the
two of you have something in common?

I'd say "Have a nice day", but I don't want to.
