When grocery store chain Winn-Dixie Stores found out one of its truck drivers is a transvestite, the company told him to hit the road. Peter Oiler had worked for the company for 21 years and apparently didn't wear a frock on the clock. Now he's slipping into some revenge. The work phone numbers of the people who helped oust Oiler are posted on ShameonWinnDixie.com, a Web site supported by the American Civil Liberties Union. Sure beats scrawling their numbers in the stall of a truck stop men's room! As you might expect, Winn-Dixie officials want the site shut down.
