Yeah

I'm not buying it.  I'm neither right nor left, nor blind, nor did I expect
this virulent response, nor did I think I did anything all that was 
conveversal or provocative.  I actually thought you'd say, hey thats cool, and
that there would have ended.

Without a doubt, I have no need to be anywhere I'm not welcome, nor any desire
to force anyone to talk to me who doesn't want to.

I'll unsubscribe.  If you care to talk to me, you have my name, address, phone 
number, email address et al.  And my door is always open.  You will be without a
doubt never berated by me like your response here.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.  I'm sorry I interupted it.

You must be a stupid engineer then, because politcs and technology have been attacted at the hip since the 1st dynasty in Ancient Egypt.  I guess you missed that one."
