FLAME ON

Steve Goldfield is an asshole.

I don't have the proof on the tip of my tongue nor do I have
time to indulge your curiosity through research. However it
is neither surprising nor hidden.  If you don't follow
talk.politics.mideast&talk,politics.soviet, you can't expect
me to spend time looking up for references for you.

FLAME OFF
