There is no "exception of people I actually have to face", Carp. You should see some of the things I have said on the anarcho-scots list about some of my fellow anarchists here in Scotland. Of course this does work both ways, some terrible things have been said about me on the anarcho-scots list too. And yes, we do meet face to face after saying these terrible things about each other. > If you don't want people to agree with you Of course I want people to agree with me. So do you. There is no difference between us in that respect. My point is, not only have I always accepted that I am in a minority on the anarchy list, I also always accepted that I would probably always _remain_ in a minority on the anarchy list. Yes, I want people to agree with me, but I do not have exaggerated expectations of being able to convince most folk on the anarchy list to see things my way. I accept that I will only be able to get across to a _few_ people on the anarchy list. Maybe not even folk who post, but just folk who _read_ things on the anarchy list. Nevertheless, those few are sufficient reason for being on the list. Dave Coull
