Grin..the count was quite rought as it were... and you are 100 % correct.. the list has been very tolerant this past couple weeks or so... but then on the other hand its been a long quiet spell from the political / religious camp as well. > It seems that the only thing that seems to keep this stuff down to a > manageable level is for a few people occasionally to yell about it.
