_sigh_ I _never_ get to be part of massive conspiracies/email campaigns. That’s it. I’m spearheading the next one. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Beryl\_Mooncalf \* > \*\*5. If I had followed these points, you would have been history as soon as you had a cronie claim “typo” so you could avoid the embarassment of doing it yourself. \*\* As I am the person who raised the possibility of a typo, this statement has direct bearing on my integrity as a poster. Therefore, I wish to state for the record the following: 1. I am not a crony of **Bricker** ’s 2. I am not a friend of **Bricker** ’s. 3. To the best of my knowledge, I have no relationship with **Bricker** other than that we both post on these message boards. 4. I have received no instructions from Bricker, either by e-mail, orally, written, by signal, or in any other method, instructing me to make the post where I raised the possibility of a typo. I further wish to state that I don’t believe your posts in this thread have been well reasoned, and that I don’t believe they have been honorable. I find repugnant your suggestion, in this thread, that disagreement with your position is due, not to honest differences, or even to honest error, but to a conspiracy headed by **Bricker**. ---

Look at the source, CAP’N. Do you really think BERYL’s opinion about anything bears on your integrity as a poster in any way? Don’t worry, it don’t. JARBABY, let me explain. No, there is too much; let me sum up: BERYL is crazy as a shit house rat. One more thing BRICKER is right about. You’re now totally up to speed on the entire thread. BRICKER, I am deeply hurt that you left me out of the e-mail campaign. I thought you said I was _always_ in the cabal. But we’ll always have Kabul in the springtime, yes? Good times, good times . . . . (P.S. You _are_ looking a little puffy. Try a cleansing masque.) ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Bricker \* > \*\*Waverly, I am afraid that you haven’t complied with my last set of e-mailed directives. Please refer to E-mail #93-026A, and especially paragraphs 4-6(a). > > Thank you. It is only through strict compliance with my e-mail campaign that our illusion of unity can be maintained. Please keep this in mind. \*\* My apologies. Email sent under the usual code name of _Raunchy Rachel_ is forwarded automatically to my PDA and the SDMB-alert is sounded. It would help if you used the special Clique Forum to announce any changes to this system. I’ve now made the same arrangements for _Penis2big2use_. I always thought paragraph 4-6(a) was just boiler plate. Are we really going to do this? ---

Well, as much as I’d like to continue in my role as Puppet-Master and Lord High Everything Else, I do think it’s fair to stop the sarcastic mocking of **Beryl** long enough to say that, as should be obvious, there is no conspiracy, vast or otherwise. The people forming their opinions of you here, Beryl, are doing it on their own, without benefit of secret mandates from me. Do you not find it odd, **Beryl** , that of all the people that have replied to this thread, _not one_ has taken your side of the issue? If you were correct, and we wrong, doesn’t it make sense that ONE person, on a message board dedicated to fighting ignorance, would step forward to defend a correct position? Isn’t there an inference to be drawn here? - Rick ---

You know, ever since I was a kid, I’ve loved courtroom drama. Be it **12 angry men** or b]A few good men\*\*, I’m always riveted. Now, normally, my sympathy always go to the underdog, who comes up with something incredibly smart and hitherto unknown, just as the third act is drawing towards its end. _Ah-ha_, I think happy to see the evil cabal and hive mind behind Big Corp bite the dust. This thread is almost as much fun, but it gives me mixed feeling, when I’m rooting for the big majority and thinking that the underdog is less than coherent and frankly seem to actually be an escapee from the loony bin. I’m still entertained, though. ---
