Tom,

I'm pretty new to the list but wanted you to know that I love your posts. I
hope you don't lay back so far that we don't hear much from you. A tempered
voice in the raw world is pretty rare, and though I'm not in total
agreement with all your "a priori's". I find your posts very refreshing. I
look for your name on posts and read them carefully. Anyway, I (for one)
don't expect you to debate every point with someone who is coming back hard
on you. When you're sick of it, let it drop, perhaps.

BTW, the old veg-raw lists' posts are FAQed and available to most anyone.
Maybe that's where your flamer got hold of them. Who knows?

Cheers,
Kirt
