Once at a party in Tidewater Virginia, I said something complimentary about MLK (he wasn't the problem, it was his hangers on). A gentleman? remarked that the KKK might burn a cross on my lawn. I told him to tell them not to stand in the light of the fire, and heard no more about the matter. Jim is putting these folks in the light of the fire.

[BTW, I did not see the egregious post. I have received, however, a very nice apology from Day-O, whom, as George said, I know. We have in the past had a good rapport, so, after some more thought, I may take her at her word. My thanks to Colonel Gillespie, and others who had kind words for me. The Colonel sent me some very good advice, privately. Like him, however, I don't always let sleeping dogs lie. I don't think we should be too hide bound on topicality (I'm full of cliches today)but just exercise a little restraint. Finally, Colonel, I had an agreement with my dentist; if he didn't hurt me, I didn't shoot him! LOL]
