Well, thanks for the feedback. Much is lost in this medium. The presuppositions I was asking Mizz to reexamine were about /me/, not about anything else. To some extent I was mindreading as well, of course.

It is, as she later wrote, /precisely a civil right issue, not a democracy issue/.

I apologize for my irritability and my unsociable utterance to Kathy _in print_, where it sat like a turd on your carpet.

The rest is silence.
