Marsha:  
I don't want to play.  You misrepresent what I say, what I think, what I 
believe and my experience.  And I am not in the mood to be on the defensive.  
You seem to want logic when it suits you, and allow for paradox when that is 
advantageous.  I think you are really smart, and even adorable, but I do not 
what to play your game.  If you want me to be Lucy, show up with 2 dozen yellow 
roses and take me for a ride on your Harley.  In exchange I'l moan into your 
ear "I'm Lucy, I'm Lucy" as long as you want.  But I am not going to play your 
silly word games.   

Bye.
