----------------------- I generally do not generally respond to "drama" threads. But I will say one thing in regards to the internal conflicts of this list. To the best of my knowledge, none of us here are Zen masters, and I'm guessing that very few of us, if any, have the benefit of a real Zen master guiding us. For the most part, we're in the dark, contemplating light. --- [email protected] wrote: > > ------------------------ Yahoo!
