I went way overboard flaming at Karl Kleinpaste. Gak. I still think he's wrong but I had no business getting that nasty. I had a high school friend who was killed with a gun by an NRA member in an "accident" and ever since then I have been a livid opponent of civilian firearms (before that incident I was merely an ordinary opponent). I let my emotionalism over the issue of guns cloud my judgment in composing mail, and I am very sorry. I'm too much of a late-night hipshooter, and Karl did nothing to deserve such an outburst. -- Brian Reid decwrl!glacier!reid Stanford reid@SU-Glacier.ARPA
