2 Samuel "19 The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen! 20 Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of As'kelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph." To think, only a few days ago, speaking ill of Daz here rated a spanking. Now, the blade of madame le guillotine is hungry for blood. I had a vague feeling when the Tailor came out that somehow, somewhere, someone would sense that money was being lost. Money makes people do strange thing. Throw in a lawyer or two and there'll be blood on the floor before it's over. I would take heart from the following: 1. Daz may be silly at times like everyone else, but they're probably not terminally stupid. 2. They're not that big and they'd prefer not to spend money on defending what may be a questionable case if they can find a face saving alternative. Negotiate, don't demand. If people's egos get involved, they become irrational. Peace, love, be cool. Why do I feel like Mary Balin on the stage at Altamont just before a Hell's Agnel cold cocked him with a pool cue?
