Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: COOL THE RHETORIC, PLEASE

[Elizabeth Stevenson (tamgoddess]

So, Fred, I guess it's okay to say anything I want, be it slanderous or
insulting, as long as it's couched in terms that are sufficiently pretty?

I sure would have appreciated you writing to me directly before you cut me
off.

I don't appreciate it, and I feel like I'm being singled out just because
I'm making the dilettantes uncomfortable.

Whatever. Drop me off the list if I can't contribute.

Liz
