Yeah, I care about being on this list. I'm assuming that if I'm out of line, someone will say, "Mark, I think you need to stop posting to Brin-L, at least for a while", which no one has yet to say. Or else call me by phone, I've posted that several times. I'm really not a bad guy. I'm just jaded, if I appear to be cruel. There's a difference between starting out jaded, and being jaded because of things happening around you. And even then, the way out is for someone to directly talk to you in explicit terms, as if you had the free will to do so, and even if you don't think you have the free will to do so [oh, geez, the world will end or something]. I keep wondering why people don't realize it, it's so clear and obvious to me, like building the pyramids. Mark
