SC - Re: Aoife's Complaint

[CorwynWdwd at aol.com]

I think I've already stated this, and I've tried to avoid this thread, but it 
won't go away. The path it's taking scares me a bit, so just to be clear...

That post was lifted verbatim from "The Church of Euthanasia" website. Same 
author and everything. So if we're going to send thought police out after 
someone actually does something with the information, we'd best send them to 
the source.

It was a prank. I didn't do it, and I don't think any legitimate person on 
this list did. It was probably some animal rights type who saw a chance to 
rattle some cook's cages, and boy did it work. The information's out there 
already. Info doesn't kill people, people kill people, and we're all 
responsible for our actions, even parole boards who let murderers out among 
us early. Even jokesters with a bad sense of humor.

There's some other stuff at that website that doesn't bear thinking of. Also 
some things that make you think. I want to apologize to the people that might 
have seen some of it when they might have used the URL I sent earlier. I 
assumed thought was still free. I apologize for the waste of bandwidth and 
the proximity to a flame. Can we just let this drop?
