[MD] Rhetoric

[mail at tuukkavirtaperko.net]

David,

nice. Now you're pretending it was your idea that I leave him alone.  
Nothing else to do than try to get inside someone else's skin? I can't  
even post a message on MD without someone trying to copulate with  
it... that must be why Pirsig doesn't do so either.

Regards,
Tuk
