From: melanie (Melanie Nesheim) I have to agree, too, that I was a bit surprised when I first saw this signature line. (e.g. "Does he mean Zaeon is in Zion? as in Jews? Surely he can't be serious!") I decided he wasn't serious, but still didn't know why the line was there until the first flame letter acknowledged that it was from the episode about the Nazis. Then it made sense (at least the origin made sense). Then what came to mind after reading the extremely polite and reasonable flame letter was a verse from the Bible (I don't remember the exact reference, but I think it's in... either Romans or one of the Gospels): Whatever is good, whatever is true, whatever is beautiful, think on these things. Seems like good advice to me! (Note: I don't apply the verse to mean ignore the negative things and they'll go away; I apply it to mean that I don't have to help spread negative things around, and in fact I can help (with God's help) spread positive things around, and that's more fun anyhow.) --Melanie Nesheim
