i agree with marian. i admire les for a decision that must have been very
difficult to make. each of us seems to know a bit of the truth, like that
old story about the three blind men and the elephant.
sometimes topics erupt on the list that leave me totally perplexed. the
latest thread on abuse seems to come out of nowhere; then debra's comments
on marcel's campaigns, and now this sudden call to express loyalty to les
make me feel like i haven't been on the same discussion list as the rest of
the people.
i don't think there's a single person on this list that condones violence or
abuse of any form, that does not love and look up to les, and that wants to
lose even more jmdl friends over bickering and pettiness.
it is sad to succumb this way, to be caught up in the devil's bargain so
inextricably.
