Joe-
I understand from your previous postings that you don't feel it worth your
time and effort to address the mainstream approach, and I both understand
and respect that. Time is at a premium for everyone and being able to focus
on a specific task (like Fairhaven) and not get caught up in frittering away
your efforts on side issues is laudable. Not to mention difficult <g>.
My problem lies (and I'm not accusing you specifically of this) when people
don't take the time to try and educate "mainstreamers", but do take the time
to say, essentially, "You're an idiot. Go away."

Sorry - I wasn't clear here. Slavery is an apt analogy, but the Civil War
was not. I think most of us are agreed that we're not going to overthrow
the system by force (okay - that phrase probably just popped me up on some
government watch list <g>), and in that respect it's difficult to draw real
parallels.
