Prudy,
The man was "pulling your leg," "putting you on." That is Southern for
teasing you. Some of us find it funny that you folks actually believe we
are so bigoted and stupid. They think it reflects rather much on the person
who "buys" it and their own "soul" or lack thereof. Sort of a verbal
version of taking the Yankees "snipe" hunting. I don't find it amusing but
have watched many people doing it who do.
J2, you left out Bessie Smith! Now there was soul.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
