 Mag - what yo are describing locally is exactly the relationwhip between us
and 
them, so the absolute fact is that you are just onle little step in ignorance 
above what you are laughing at. I am extremely emotional about what is going on 
down here , and my passion for it is why I am doing things that you have no 
business criticizing. 

 There are many people like you who always have something to say about me or us 
yet you will never know, now will you?

 The last word is that any mention of these guys , even if it is in a bullshit 
article by a food editor , is indeed offensive to the real cave divers, which
is 
us - fact of life. If you had any idea, you would understand

  Let me tell you one more thing: this same guy who wrote the article , Bucky 
McMann, called me to ask if he could do one on WKPP - I told him to "suck my 
dick", called his editor, and complained. His editor said he had two articles
on 
WKPP on his desk, one by Mike Wisenbaker of WKPP, and one by a writer who spend 
many weeks with us , helping , carrying tanks, and living with us . Bucky's 
intervention kept thase two articles in limbo, while the bullshit article got 
published.

  You , Marguerite, are another ignorant asshole, and do not deserve the 
courtesy I have shown you by not telling you to also suck my dick right off the 
bat. I have been remiss in not doing so, and just want you and all of the other 
uninformed idiots like you who sit out there taking shots at the real players, 
to know that to me, you are the fat slob with the spare air, and you always
will 
be. Now, you can get out the kneepads
