Let me get this straight?  Someone is flaming you for discussing the lyrics
of a Joni Mitchell song, on the Joni Mitchell Discussion List?  Does that
strike anyone else as being ridiculous!?

Don't take any notice Kakki - personally I always love your posts!  And I
love the discussion on this song - it's one of my favourites, and although
it's always been said that it was about David Blue, the lyrics always seemed
to me, to be too intimate and personal.  I think Graham Nash fits the bill
perfectly.

Of course the only one who REALLY knows is Joni, and she doesn't appear to
be here - unless of course she's the one doing the flaming!
