[net.suicide] Martin Shannon is a pseudonym!

Elizabeth Bimmler is not a pseudonym.  Some weasel on mhb5b
is masquerading as one Martin Shannon (Jr., no less) and has the
gaul to suggest a coward is hiding behind my good monicker.  Well,
Mr. Shannon (I will pretend that is your name), I can assure you that
there is a lot more reality and life in my umbrella than in your
whole emaciated frame.

I'm real!  Honest!  I even have a birth certificate to prove it!

Well, I'm afraid this bimmler stuff has gone far enough.  At the risk
of committing social suicide (that *is* what we're all about, isn't
it?), I propose that the alleged Ms. Bimmler and I settle our mutual
disbelief over lunch.  I'd suggest the Murray Hill cafeteria, but I'm
not ready for the *big* suicide (yet).  Perhaps one of the more
reputable eating establishments in beautiful metropolitan New
Providence (so close to Murray Hill that we allow them to use our zip
code (until we go to 9 digits, that is))?  I'm partial to Mexican food
these days.  How about you, Ms. Bimmler?  I await your answer with
bated breath....

By the way, whichever of us is real will report the results to the net,
unless neither of us is real, in which case none of the rest of you will
ever know....
