Strange, Mike.  Wasn't it you who said...

Somehow, I think that Kate's schooling has a heck of a lot more to do
with Kate Bush than the Happy Rhodes posts you were defending when you
said that.  

I believe you have a right to speak up if you feel the discussion is 
out of hand.  Unfortunately, the only reason you give is that you are 
tired of it.  I don't think that's sufficient reason for anyone to 
consider that the subject might not be completely appropriate to this 
forum.
