I really have to wonder what happened to Steve anyway.  He and I used to get 
along quite well on this list, only recently has he taken my political stance 
personally.  I'm not sure what changed:  My political affiliation hasn't ever 
been a secret and I don't hide the fact I left the Democratic Party for the 
Democratic Socialist Party in 2001.  Five years is a long time to wait to 
make a mountain out of a molehill...
