Ah, but many people do sensual (including me). Doing 'dry' as well as Fred
is what's unusual.
As for Larissa's lush poem. I particularly like the sound-echoes in the
first stanza.
I suppose everyone thinks this is about a woman and her lover (which it
could be). But I see it also and perhaps more logically as about a woman
breastfeeding her new baby boy and cuddling him in bed at night (as you do).
For formatting -- I use gmail. (A great mailer for discussion lists, fast,
free of fruit-salad, easy to use, but still kind of comfy for us old Unix
hackers. Sign up at gmail.com.) Before gmail I used plain text. Nothing
really works perfectly apart from maybe posting a link to a document
somewhere, but then we have to follow the link and if I'm in a rush I
usually can't be bothered.
