<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To whom it may concern,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Please disregard the libelous and completely
untruthful statements I made previously regarding the illustrious and benevolent
Mass. DMV (official motto: for the betterment of the universe) I was wrong to
have said those things and will, in the future strive to speak only the glowing
truth about this truly wonderful and selfless organization. Please accept my
most abject apology for the insult I knowingly and maliciously heaped upon my
betters. I am an ass and as such am unworthy of sharing a planet with people as
wonderful and all knowing as these. I anxiously await their telling me
what I should do, say , and think as I have proven myself utterly incapable
of carrying these duties out on my own.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Mass. DMV is the most evil, inflexible,
obdurate organization on the face of this or any other planet. They make the
KGB seem warm and cuddly. They make the Borg seem open to friendly negotiation
and persuasion. They are always right and should you dare to disagree, they
will make your life hell until you relent and admit to their all knowing
superiority and abase yourself to their grinning,
sadistic satisfaction. Their official motto: All hail Mass.
DMV (or we'll kill you) Please don't get me started. In fact their probably
monitoring this discussion board and making plans to kidnap and torture one of
my pets for having the temerity to say something negative about their little
cabal. I've got to go, there's someone at my front door...</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>g.,<BR><BR>We don't agree on a lot of things, but I have to
say that I agree with pretty much everything you said here. The
Archies thing was a misunderstanding and the proprietors shouldn't be raked
over the coals for it. I don't smoke, and prefer smoke-free restraunts
and bars, but I don't think I have the right to force anybody to agree to
that. I hate group-think, and look to eradicate it where I can.

<DIV align=left><FONT face=Arial size=2>Either become a warm, kind,

emotional welfare of your fellow travelers or we'll destroy your
reputation, confiscate your ability to feed your family and

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why do certain, contestably well
intentioned, people feel the need to band together to bend others to
their will?</FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2>When the disabled fellow and
his person felt that they weren't being made as welcome as they would have
liked at one restaurant they opted to go to another. Good call! Why not
have left it at that? Why the overwhelming need to be vindictive, organize
a mob to punish the first establishments owner, force them, by God,
to come around to their way of thinking, even though the disruption
was almost certainly the result of a misunderstanding or a momentary lapse
on the part of Mr. Johnson and/or the
caregiver/aid/friend/whatever?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To a lesser extent, the same applies to
Bucer's. They have a smoking room. You may not like it but you are not
required to frequent the establishment. Choose one of the many other
businesses that are more to your liking and leave Bucer's to cater to the
clientele that appreciates the increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy a
smoke with like minded patrons. Attempting to pass legislation to force a
private property owner to comply with your desires under penalty of loss
of livelihood is meddling in another's bailiwick writ large. Lets face it,
the likelihood that Mr. Rigby or Mr. Carscallen are feeling seriously
neglected or that their wellbeing is negatively impacted by not being able
to down yet another high priced cup of joe is doubtful. Drink in Pullman
if it's more to your liking, don't deprive others into having no
place to gather, all to satisfy your personal whim.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Since when does the majority get
to dictate their way of thinking on all others, in all matters? Is
George Orwell and Aldous Huxley no longer read as part of a "public
education?" I guess the idea that someone might want to go their own way
has become unfathomable and group think the order of the day. Liberal
Moscow is turning into the Massachusetts DMV.</FONT></DIV>
