Joan,
Thanks for your response. Rose made the comment
publicly and did not retract it. She didn't offend me -
the lie was not about me, and therefore she had no
reason to apologize to me. She didn't retract the
comment or apologize to Vision2020 for posting
information she knew to be incorrect. Was that her
first inaccuracy or one of many?
Rose is first in line to "poke" at those whose spew
their version of the truth or fail (in her opinion) to live
up to the practices and beliefs they embrace. If she
holds others to high standards, why doesn't she
hold herself to the same? Isn't that hypocrisy?
Rose tells me her *words* have no effect. Well, that
dog won't hunt. Her vicious attacks, in a medium
which depends on words, are calculated and born
out of something more than just a quest to "speak
truth to power."
It would be refreshing to see you spread some of
that mercy around.

If I'm remembering correctly, Lucy (since I can't seem to get into the
archives), the "lie" you refer to has to do with Rose mistakenly posting
that a Steve Wilkins' book on hospitality was in fact about something
else.
Not really life or death stuff. Not really a lie, either, come to think
of
it. As I also recall, she apologized to you for that mistake and
offered to
post a correction.

When accusing someone of lying, it is instructive to show what lies are
being complained of and why the accuser thinks they are lies; otherwise
one
thinks the accuser is a gutless sniper.

Hello Tom,
<br>
<br>
I am sure you saw the message that I forwarded to you yesterday from
George Young at Auburn. In reality, that pretty well telescopes
what
other comments I have gleaned and my personal observation of Steve
Jones. The thing hit the Raleigh paper yesterday, and I saw that
Steve
is knocking down $180,000 annually, so he is one of the high fliers
around here.
<br>
<br>
Tom, Steve is seen as a friendly, affable person who relates to folks
at all levels, whether in groups or individually. He has
demonstrated
a keen sense and energy for building partnerships here on campus, in
state government and with industry. This coalition and partnership
building is a hallmark of his successes here so far. He came into
a
role that was expected to roll all extension efforts under one main
office. So, since Cooperative Extension is the 800 pound gorilla
and
in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, there has been some
ticklish moments in weaving all of the entities together in a more
unified fashion from the whole university. Steve has taken a very
measured and conciliatory approach that has not left lasting harm or
ruffled feathers as he has forged a very workable relationship with CES
as well as the other entities. So, his ability to collaborate and
be
flexible has proven to serve him well.
<br>
<br>
Steve is known for looking for funding sources via grants, gifts, and
other shared funding with industry and other institutions. He has
established this reputation everywhere he has worked. Also, in
this
regard, he has sufficient vision and broad thinking abilities to make
things happen without upsetting the apple cart in the process.
<br>
<br>
Tom, from my personal perspective as well as that from others, this is
the way we see Steve Jones. To be honest, I think you would do
well to
consider him very seriously.
<br>
<br>
You take care my friend, and if I can be of further assistance, please
let me know.
<br>
<br>

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Visionaries:
Maybe I have it wrong. No doubt many of you are convinced of this.
I considered after I wrote the V2020 post today mentioning veiled women
that,
during lunar or solar eclipses, which are a "veiling" of the moon or
sun,
these celestial events do inspire feelings of power, beauty and mystery.
But not
because the objects they veil are rarely seen. In fact, it is the
opposite,
just like at Mardi Gras or Halloween, that because the objects are
commonly
viewed, when they are veiled, they become extraordinarily mysterious.
We are accustomed to the regular appearance of certain events, therefore
when
they disappear, the invalidation of our perceptual expectations induces
a
cognitive dissonance difficult to resolve. This psychology could be
utilized to
design a wonderful spiritual holiday of renewal.
I propose that we mandate total nudity in public during the summer.
Then, on
a special day designated for the worship of the sacred temple of the
human
body, and our existence as persons first and foremost, we all wear burka
style
garments, men and women alike, of all races, religions and ethnicity's,
to
facilitate experiencing the veiled secrets of humankind! The Equinox
would be a
fitting moment of balance between the seasons after the warmth of summer
for
this celebration of the equality of the sexes, of all religions and
races, and
the unfathomable divinity of our humanity, when we could not tell who
was women
or man, black or white, our bodies covered, head to toe. Quietude,
fasting,
yoga, and blissful meditations on wild and natural environments would be
encouraged. Of course, sex would contradict the vast abstract yet
embodied
meanings behind the Veil.
This rite would assume the awesome aura of eclipses of the moon and sun.
The
mystery and beauty of our bodies would be renewed the day after, when
our
marvelous flesh was revealed, reveling in the sensual pleasure of
existence, with
our common humanity and divinity renewed. Everyone would be reawakened
in
childlike innocence, as though we suddenly found ourselves alive and
drunk in
the unexplainable grandeur of our existence on the first day of
creation. And
the ban on sex the day before would leave room for the expected
forbidden
pleasures humanity craves. How many burkas were lifted in secrecy no
one would
know.
We must push the edge of the progressive Enlightenment, that terrifying
liberal humanist envelope ever expanding... Onward!

Subject: [Vision2020] Apples and Oranges
1) Washing a car while topless in a little town in Idaho is an act that
cannot be separated from sexuality.
2) Rape is an act that cannoy be separated from sexuality.
3) Apples do not equal oranges.
4) Apples are fruit, and oranges are also fruit.
5) Apples and oranges have characteristics in common, though they are
not the same.
6) Integrate
7) As the rate of toplessness increases, apple pie is more abundant.
As you can see from the above proof, the anti-nudity law did us all harm
in decreasing the amounts of apple pie in the local commmunity. No.
What I'm trying to point out is that permitting nudity has nothing to do
with permitting (encouraging) rape. Not only is that an awful spin on
the "She was asking for it, and men have Urges," foolishness, but it
doesn't make sense. Analogies are useful rhetorical tools, if the two
things being compared are analogous. This appears to be implicit
namecalling (You wouldn't mind topless chicks washing your car?! You
are encouraging rape! Rapist!).
Your slippery slope is my (topless?) slip 'n' slide,
