| Ya know, Lawrence, I'm glad to hear from you ... something's been
| bugging me and I thought we could deal with it, y' know, American
| fashion, man to man. I defined politics as making use of people you may
| despise with goals you may oppose to help you achieve your goals. A
| process sometimes glamorizing as "compromise." You quoted this and,
| with your usual portenous-yet-etheralizing technique of dropping
| periods, wrote "Not in my dictionary" ... Lawrence, I see two
| possibilities: either you have some saintlier definition of politics I'm
| incapable, Mossad/CIA brute that I am, of grasping; or, in fact, the
| word "politics" ISN'T in your dictionary - which would explain a great
| deal ... At any event, I think it's a wonderful idea for you to delete
| me automatically. In these trying days, one must maintain inner calm.
