OK, you did give the reason, but why would you want to participate in any organization that messed in the head in the first place after finding out the real poop? I am not preaching at ya, just my reaction, and probablly yours after a while. Emho Phillips said once: I had a Principal in grammar school who I got in trouble with. He took me into his office and lectured me. He apparently didn't think it did any good so he said, "I'm sorry son but "I'm going to have to expel you." I replied, "you'll have to catch and eat me first!" ha ha ha. I think that about puts the right perspective on the NFB's expelling somebody. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!109!114!Al.Hoffman Internet: Al.Hoffman@f114.n109.z1.fidonet.org

Index Number: 12942 [This is from the Blink Talk Conference] Well, Al, you couldn't have used a better example. I guess one reads about it, hears about it, and somehow thinks it will never happen tothem. That's howit was. I'll tell you what though it did make me think long and hard about some of the famous or infamous people of NFB's past who were expelled or made to resign as in my case and made me wunder if maybe there was another side that was not kade known. I'm sure there was in most cases. Grant -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!129!89.0!Grant.Downey Internet: Grant.Downey@p0.f89.n129.z1.fidonet.org
