touche...
and if lambda c wants to dig back through the archives he will unearth proof
that i never asked that question.nietzsche's sexual antics or lack thereof
are really of no interest to me.the question was posed by someone else on
the list.i merely responded to the question that he wasn't...which invited a
firestorm of criticism.

i wasn't specifically accusing lambda c of anything.do you have a guilty
conscience?since lambda c has been silent for lo these many months it was
obviously not directed at him.
