It is.  But they're having problems - there are several "members" who won't
play the MMM (Mutual Mental Masturbation) game.  Things got right catty for
a while when it first started up - actually after Roxy and Bubba came on
board - and Bryan's name came up as a bad example. I was vilified, but never
openly named.  It took them almost 2 months to figure out who I was -

at-l purists?

LOL!!!

No - just some of us who'd rather cut a thief's throat than let him hijack
the list.

Have a good night -
