Post #37,887 by CRConrad 5/8/02 2:46:32 AM Reply	Yeah, but OTOH: What does "Rule of Law" mean... ...if not, in essence, exactly "Be nice or we'll beat you"? And I sure am all for the rule of law, "Niceness Nazism" or not. Which, IMnshO, pretty much invalidates -- at least, in the sense of "renders meaningless" -- the current practice of adding "-Nazi" to any old word. Christian R.

I'm in the "Information Technology" business, prima facia evidence that there's bats in the bell tower. -- [link\|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=27764\|Andrew Grygus]

Er PC-Nazis? (but mind reels at PC-PC-Nazis) Tree-Hugger VS Let's chip all them old growth forests into particle board so's we can have lots of shelves? Fortunately - there's so much stupid shit going on /day - no one can even list it all, let alone reverse more than some token amount. So that leaves Meher Baba, I guess - Dont worry. Be happy.
