It's Richard Smith!  May the gods fuck us all, everybody, look!  It's
Richard Smith!  How the _fuck_ have they been treating you?

It is their Christian or Muslim duty to hand out gods to those poor
souls who have yet to acquire one.  And for that we thank them -- and
then pat them on the heads and send them on their ways least we get
a bullet to "save" us.

rs> Guffaw.  Well, I'm back for a tiny bit, hope to be back for more.

God!  I'm chin deep is a _lot_ of subversive stuff.

rs> How go the Flying Rice Brothers?  :)

Well, we've both managed to keep out of prison in frame-up charges
phoned in by Scientology yet there's also been progress made in a
broad arena from environmentalist activism to anti-war activism to
tax exemption status (the granting and the revocating of same.)  It
has been a good year in all.

I did some under cover police work yesterday -- no, two days ago --
and had the most amazing beard and mustache.  I've got photographs
and will make them available on the Internet.  I've since shaved it
all off.

rs> By the way, Gwenny the Pooh says hello, she and I are
rs> almost neighbors now, just barely 80 miles between us.

Golly, I do in fact need to come up there.  In fact I was supposed
to be in Santa Cruz right now at an Earth First! conference.

rs> I'm still in touch with Dave Hamilton as well,

I'm surprised he's still among us.

rs> and speak to Katherine Wintersnight from time to time.

Coolness.  I get e-mail from Three Harpies from time to time.

rs> Hope to chat with you soon.  I trust I've been keeping
rs> the echo alive by registering it every so often.  Glad
rs> to see it's not entirely dead.

I'm supposedly still the moderator of record but really, there
doesn't seem to be much need for a moderator.  Even when someone
misbehaves it's of a short duration.  You know me, I hate the
notion of moderatorship unless there's a really serious problem.
FidoNet and the echos I'm supposedly moderating get alone just
fine without change.

Someone -- a star or something -- sent out a questionare for all
the people in Net 218 to fill out and send in (I used to be net 218
however I returned to 102.)  The questions were moderately along
the lines of wondering if anyone wants rebellion.  I hope that
nobody bothered to answer it.
