[at-l] Possum

[Paula <paulers@ix.netcom.com>]

I think I saw a Possum last nite in my yard...

Came downstairs for some juice and the side motion detector came on. 
went to the side window and looked out and there was this huge THING
walking on the snow alongside the house and deck and went into the
brambles by the shed.  It had a long sticklike rat tail, was kinda
roundish and oblong shaped with a strange face... i really think it was
a possum cuz i cant think what else it could have been.

Wow!  I never thought those things were this far north ( annapolis MD )
really odd looking and now I know what my dog has been sniffing in that
area!  anyone know what kinda noise they make?  my neighbor and i have
been hearing these weird screaming sounds sometimes from the brambles
and its kinda spooky at nite - sounds like something is dying in there. 
is it the possum or its dinner?

This sounds like a man with a chip on his shoulders or an EXTREME case
of paranoia.  I realize it is HIS site and he has every right to set
the rules.  
But, where does ANYONE get off censoring and MODIFYING someone else's
writing.  

Does he make it clear to the hiker, when they agree to place the
journal on trailplace, that he, WF, holds all rights to the
information being published?

wouldn't it be interesting if someone else decided to give him
competition by publishing a different databook?  I'd like to see how
the ATC handles that one.
