As if the insult that follows this remark is not enough, this single  
statement alone:

Is utterly contemptible. I wrote Eugen offlist to say so. Call me  
whatever you want. But oppose my capability to attempt to return?  
Especially on a list where it is the intent - the heavily invested  
intent for some - of some/many members?

And for what is this opposition raised? Teleological or  
eschatological argument? Pattern versus thread? No. Presidential  
impeachment. One of the largest wastes of pixels out there.

I've offered before that I thought this list was under attack in a  
manner like alt.syntax.tactical used to do back in the days before  
"threadjack" was a word. Fortunately we have people willing enough to  
derail the list without a conspiracy. If you want to plot  
impeachment, there are probably thousands of lists  one can join. I'm  
sure one would even send you a t-shirt. Meanwhile, I want to know  
what everyone's SL names are, and talk about the talk.

(with one 't' and considered saying "the original Bret" since I don't  
recall one being on here back when I joined the first time, but  
wouldn't want to insult the Bret Collective either. My rant is over,  
back to watching Blues Clues.)
