Hi Paul,

BL>         I agree. I only give the correct answers to people I know.
BL> Lawrence is a good name; it can be spelled lots of ways, and silly
BL> computers never know the difference. I use it to find out who is
BL> selling my name on lists. I lie about my address too. I just change
BL> the number and the postman finds it anyway. There are a lot of loonies
BL> out there, Alan.

PE> You are a prude and a communist.  A prude to think that you are so
PE> important that having your name on mailing lists is a breach of
PE> national security.

Prude is the wrong word. Narcissistic is more apt. But there's nothing
wrong with Bob's attitude anyway - everyone thinks they're the most
important person in the world and the centre of the universe. Paranoia
may come into it as well. The welder that just repaired my bike is
convinced that mailing lists, computers, Paul Keating, the ALP, the
republican push, and a whole lot of other stuff is a conspiracy to
convert to a cashless Fabian society. Fortunately he's an artist with
the welding rod though.

PE> A communist for thinking that making
PE> Australia Post employees have to do more work to deliver your
PE> letter is acceptable, thus undermining the efficiency of a
PE> capitalist country. BFN.

Australia Post is a sheltered workshop, and it should be made as
difficult as possible for them.


Regards, Alan.
