All joking aside, I personally feel it is our responsibility to at least try to set people straight on stuff like this (though I must agree giving him the SLAS schedule might be a bad idea).

Please don't give him the SLAS schedule of events! The sad part is, he's not the only one, in all probability. I'll bet it started with some lonely guy calling the Art Bell show at 2 a.m. Do this: Tell him that yes, we know about it, but there isn't room on the escape ship for him, too, sorry old chap. Then give him Orin Hatch's phone number. C. --- Richard Tenney <retenney@yahoo.com> wrote:
