- Janis -- I have a *lot* of respect for you, and I really appreciate
- when you try to give people a jolt, to get them thinking. But I
- just can't sit here and read this without wondering if you *realize*
- that when you talk about smacking people over the head, you're really
- describing how much *YOU* desire power-over!
-
- Please, Janis, think about it. Try to understand yourself.
-
- Bear Blessings!
