[Vision2020] What's the world coming to??

[Tony]

The outrage!!!  Why I've heard some outlandish things in my time - but the 
postings from this Heirdoug fellow have really gone too far.  What is the 
matter with this Nazi Neanderthal?  Doesn't this hateful and filthy pig know 
that civility is the order of the day on this list?  How could such a 
knuckle-dragging, Bush-loving, piece of human detritus fail to realize that 
tolerance and political diversity are cherished by liberals like me, Keely, 
Nick and the group?

We all need to just love one another and get along.  You got that Heirdoug, 
you vicious, nasty, glazed-eyed foamer??

Desperate for a return to decency and civility.... (sniff!)    -Clint
