BAKKE *grin* Actually, this is not unusual behavior for many people who send me flame mail about my views on religion. It is quite common for their e-mail addresses to be bogus or to suddenly disappear. All I can say is that these people can't have much faith in what they claim to believe if they can't sign their names to their messages or have to hide behind bogus accounts. It's not just confined to the e-mail world, either. A few years ago (while I was stationed in Turkey), I wrote a Letter to the Editor of the Stars and Stripes which challenged a previous letter written by a Chaplain in which he railed about the "evils of evolution". A couple of weeks after my letter was published, I received a letter in the mail. The letter had no return address and a postmark showing that it had been mailed from Belgium. Inside was a newspaper clipping containing my published letter. The sender had circled my letter and wrote two words over it -- "Who Cares?". I guess some people have too much time on their hands... -- Visit "NIGHT OWL MK. II" at: http://www.bakkster.com (New domain name!) Featuring: BOULDER GAMES -- The Best in Wargames!
