For the record,I posted publically on Nov 12 , 96: >>In "defense" of the NFL guys, they are much easier to take in person. >>Melisa and I met them at an "Earth Fair" here in southern CA. They are >>truly excited about what they have stumbled on and that excitement is >>infectous in person (though pretty much lost on us). They further claim >>that the "in your face" writing approach is in response to the same >>approach which worked on them and got them into the raw-vegan route. (I >>probably shouldn't speak for them as they are quite capable of posting >>themselves--if we haven't scared the bejezus out of em already :)<< Looks like they didn't have much bejesus in there at all, eh? Normally I wouldn't share private email, but below is what I could scrounge up in the way of private email with the fellas. There was a very short private email (which I can't find; maybe the fellas would be so kind as to post it) where I said that they didn't get what veg-raw was all about. I later repeated same in a public post. The idea that I'm bombing these guys with harsh private email is simply not true. If anything, looking back on this email makes me ashamed that I was so nicey-nicey with them when I thought their book was bad news... If nothing else, it is proof that they are able to sign an email individually.
