No, the reason _does_ mean something. For one thing this is clearly a
clause deliberately intended to piss off one individual. As it happens
it also pisses me off, because the 1WSW site is now my site.

Come to think of it, seeing as how the issue of Dr. Tom's sexuality has
been brought up so many times, I bet a case could be made in which that
clause is classified as discrimination. People have certainly done this
when stores refused to sell to them.

Now, obviously, I doubt we'll ever have the chance to prove this
legally, so it's really pointless to continue arguing about it. I just
think the whole thing is rather silly.

"Contnuity" eh? Is this a deliberate mispelling or a bad pun?  Exactly
why should I be classified as dead? Is it because I don't worship the
proper self-proclaimed gods anymore?

Actually I'm more inclined to say I've woken up. I don't put up with
people's crap anymore.
