Maybe I just really don't trust anyone as much as you do.  I've often marveled
at the degree of trust I see.  People will drink or whatever to the point
where they must depend on others (frequently strangers) to see to it that they
come out all right.   They will tell co-workers things they wouldn't tell
their mother.  For example,
Monica telling all and perhaps all-plus to a woman she had to know was angry
and seeking revenge on the Clinton White House.  However, since my response to
you, I have recalled telling someone something I wish I had not said.  It was
an occasion in the military.  A black friend was experiencing some problems
with the school about one of her children.  It was very clearly a matter of
discrimination.  She asked for my help in writing a letter to the base
commander.  I helped her, and I don't know what legal correspondence is like,
but apparently the base must have thought she had hired an attorney.  I
received a telephone call from one of the installation chaplains who asked me
(in a very roundabout way) if I had helped her write the letter.  I told him I
had, and the incident was blown off with the usual casual military manner.  I
wish I had not told him the truth, but I'm sure the commander was happy,
because he didn't have to worry about dealing with a civilian lawyer about the
discrimination.   I did learn from the situation, of course.  I no longer
trust "men of the cloth" any more than I trust anyone else (which is very,
very little).  Prudy
