Subject: A Little Virtue For A Maddening Situation (R.A.M.S)

(ebk- I know this is alittle of topic, but not far <g>)


After posting for the second time to this list, I have finally
got some fan mail. In this mail I was called "stupid" and a
"fool". (don't worry Mr. Stephens, I won't tell them it was you
<g>) I guess it's true when they say it's good to feel loved
<g>. So I thought a little virtue from the "Teachings of
Buddha" was in order:

A fool who thinks that he is a fool is for that very reason a
wise man. The fool who thinks that he is wise is called a fool
indeed.

Though he should conquer a thousand men in the battlefield a
thousand times, yet he, indeed, who would conquer himself is the
noblest victor.

In the face of all that is so crazy in this field and all the
hatred that seems to sprout up becuse of it, you don't have to
look far to see why so much never gets done. If we as a people
hope to ever get to the bottom of the fog, we have got to stop
holding each other back.

Thanks and Good Luck,
