Louis: You know, I hesitate to comment on this bit of business because it
is so ludicrous, but what the hey I might not have Malecki to kick around
much longer.

The words above are *mine*. They were sent to Malecki privately in
response to private mail he sent me. End of story.

If I had decided to reply to him publicly, it would have been along the
following lines:

Robert, you have the gall to put words into black people's mouths that are
even more stupid and degrading than anything I ever heard in an old Amos
and Andy show. Just because you seem to enjoy degrading yourself, there is
no reason to degrade others. Working people are not cockroaches. Black
people don't say things like, "If dat were me der".

You are one of the most repulsive people I have ever stumbled across in my
life. Perhaps if you had a little bit more self-respect, you would have
more respect for others. It must be a horrible feeling, waking up each day
and realizing that you are Robert Malecki.
