Subj: Re: [DR-L] Hitler quote, etc...
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2005 17:22:50 -0400


Why cant we have this kind of enthusiasm about double reed topics. All this
junk was caused by a semi contraversial quote and now everyone's in a hissy
fit. I understand everyone has the right to an opinion and everyone on this
list has a right to input one's opinion, but just hold it to yourself.
Contrasting opinions that are off topic, though important, on the list only
start "flames". Now for my two cents, I don't mind reading about Hitler or
other evil people. There is a lot that you can learn from the leaders of
the world. Granted, he is possibly the most evil person ever to exist but
it is education that will ensure that in the future that it wont happen
again. The original message was a quote of the day; something that should
be entertaining. Sometimes you need to give up.

Hypocritically
Chris Franz
