You're intelligent enough to understand. Try to! Ed can't, but I
think you are able to.

You post drivel all the time. Especially the past few months.
What part of ARBR don't you understand?

I don't recall saying anything negative about being gay. Would you
please point where I was negative about same-sex orientation. Now
people in denial, that's another subject!

Stupid? Great choice of words here! I figured you were repressed a
long time ago and many other on this group have figured this out too.
Sorry, one can have a good analysis from Usenet, especially after
reading your posts for the past five years.

Where did I condem homosexuality, and I said nothing about banning
same sex marriage.
A little history:
In 1969 I left college for a weekend at home. Nothing was happening
at home so I went back to my college apartment. I rolled in and
immediately went to the bedroom I shared with my roomate. I found him
in bed with another man. I was shocked, but Greg and I talked things
over and we lived together for the rest of the year. It was an
interesting year. Greg felt better that I knew about his orientation,
and it didn't bother me. I learned!
Foreward to 1977.....A group of us were drinking wine, listening to
jazz, and eating dinner at a moving away party for Steve. Dave, a
friend of mine, had just moved back to Minnesota from San Francisco.
During dinner Dave looked at Steve and said, "How long have you known
you're gay?" I've never seen so much food spit at a table. Steve
was ****** and left. Everyone else, except me, was ****** at Dave for
thinking Steve was gay (I also was sure Steve was gay).
Foreward to 1988.....A friend of mine was getting married in Seattle.
Steve (the 1977 Steve) and Dan picked us up at the airport and
escorted us around Washington for the next week. Steve said it took
him a couple of years to finally come out. We laughed about that
dinner!
Foreward to 1996.....I asked my wife Terry if her friend Vicki was
gay. "Of course not!" Terry replied. "She just hasn't found anyone
yet."
Foreward to 2000.....Vicki introduces us to her partner Sue. They
both wonder if we would be there to support them when Vicki "came
out." We were.
Foreward to last Saturday night (how ironic!)....Vicki and Sue thank
us for being a reference so they can adopt a child.
On Saturday we also talked about comming out of the closet and what it
meant for them and their friends. They described how frustrated they
and others were until they finally acknowledged their orientation AND
came out. The people they described sounded very similar
to...............

Oh, I know how much I have in common with Ed, but I don't have near as
much in common with Ed as you!
Neither you nor Ed truly understand Usenet and what it is for.
Neither you nor Ed understand what ARBR is for.
Both you and Ed disgust most people here.
Both you and Ed have driven many people away who want to discuss
recumbents.
Both you and Ed think all others have to do is turn on their filter.
Both you and Ed think all others have to do is ignore you.
Both you and Ed are in denial and display tendencies that you are

I annoy 1/1000 as many as you Tom! Actually, from the private e-mail
I'm getting they are annoyed with you.
You are second only to Ed in "pissing" contests.
> [1] Note that I have corrected Mr. Butler's top posting.
Yes, we all know how anal-retentive you are!
Tom, I wonder why you are so frustrated that you have to take over
ARBR. Aren't you intelligent enough to move to a political Usenet
group or do they eat you alive? If you're going to answer any
question, at least completely answer this one!
You need to get a life!
Your choice, think about it!
