So normally I do not get political here (ELizabeth, I hope you know I
was just making a joke about shaving or not) but this issue has
bothered me multiple times in the past. A couple of times a year, The
Iceman talks about how SPAH used to be in the Golden Age and now it is
so terrible.
I have taken a class on non violent communication. It teaches this
crazy language, that even when best done, makes the people around you
think you are insane because nobody talks like that. However when you
meet someone else who has taken the class, it tends to diffuse a
difficult situation because they are aware that you are attempting to
express your feelings in a non violent way and that attempt means
goodwill. So here goes:
Iceman, when you say those things it makes me feel angry because my
need to enjoy
the present SPAH on its own terms is not being met. Would you please
try not to talk about this subject on this list in the future?
