Try MS Instant Messenger ? [was Thrown out of an FBO...]
Whenever I see see a read with repeated dialog between less than a half
dozen people, I really wish the participants would try using Instant messenger, rather than watsing usenet bnswidth ona local dialog. The thread leading into this message is a case in point! We actually had a good solution for that (the prepends, like OT, POL, PED) but forgot. I've started prepending POL when I remember.

Would it irk you? Do you consider this "best mate" to =be= family?
No. He's not family. Nothing will change that. Well then, your comparison to some gay couples is flawed. There are gay couples that are like "boyfriend/girlfriend"; they are not family to each other. They're dating. Those are not the ones seeking visitation rights for themselves. However, there are other gay couples that have committed themselves to each other for life. =They= are family to each other. =They= are the ones that want their ssspouse to be able to visit them. That's far more akin to your wife being denied visitation rights because she is not a blood relative. I bet that would irk you.

om... The hospital says I'm only allowed immediate family to visit. My best mate of 30 years, whom I love like a brother, isn't allowed to visit. This would irk him too, but he doesn't cry discrimination or equal rights about it. Would it irk you? Do you consider this "best mate" to =be= family? Jose No. He's not family. Nothing will change that. (unless he marries my sister or something, and even then, he wouldn't pass as immediate family.) Oz/Crash Lander |

And if you do, and I think you do, then you know what a powerful tool it is with which to control men and convince them that the vilest most cruel acts are justified. Sure beats your crap. Check this crap out and tell me you would even want to be associated with a god who would encourage this. http://www.dim.com/~randl/tinq.htm God doesn't encourage that. Evil men do. Yeah. OK. You keep believing that. Does the tooth fairy leave money for dentures? Do you still leave out cookies and milk for Santa? Grow up! Make your own decisions and stop deluding yourself. Maybe W went here for some tips. You are truly sick. And you are lost and perishing. Hopefully, you will see the light before it is too late. I already have. Matt |

I love this! YOU want PROOF. How freakin rich is that?
OK. I want PROOF that there is a god. Proof...not that "cause the bible says so" crap. mike "Matt Whiting" wrote in message news And he has no objective proof that God encourages or even condones the atrocities to which he makes reference. Matt |

Dylan,
Hell doesn't exist, and an absence of religion isn't a religion. It's an ....absence... of religion. It is possible to have no religion, you know. We had a extensive discussion on this a while back - google it, if you like. I promise you: Matt won't budge. You haven't seen half of it. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

If you decide you're going to stick your finger in your nose in a fine restaurant, and eat whatever you retrieve, you WILL be escorted from that restaurant, guaranteed. However, if you have blue eyes, you won't. One is an action, one is an appearance. They are both harmless to all concerned, but are treated quite differently. How is the action of a straight couple loving each other any different from a gay couple loving each other? Gayness or straightness is just an attribute of who you are, just like, say, having blue eyes or being left handed. Denying gay marriage makes as much sense as denying left handed marriage. -- Yes, the Reply-To email address is valid. Oolite-Linux: an Elite tribute: http://oolite-linux.berlios.de |
