Cohousing-L Mailing List: My Buzz Flame

[Michael Omogrosso (omo]

Below is Christina's request for an addittional apology to Buzz and the 
list.  I do feel that Christina and John Major perhaps missed a major 
coloration of the searing response to Buzz's tounge-in-cheek aludement 
that we should live with our own "kind."  It is nice to know there are so 
many defenders on this list.  But, really now, just what is it you are 
defending which allows you to get so fired up about an equally obvious 
TIC as "Tie-die your white sheet and join us."  What are we here, a bunch 
of liberal Democrat censors?

Hello,

I saw your apology(?) to Buzz in the cohousing list.

I was deeply offended by your use of the white-sheet reference.  That, to me,
 was wildly inappropriate, offensive, irrational, mis-applied, and extreme; 
way beyond his rational, thoughtful posting.  I think you owe a stronger 
apology (i.e. a real apology) to the list and to Buzz for using the term and 
for the personal attack.
