My reply Thanks for you mail and for letting me feel I am not totally alone in the way I think..To comment on your last few lines..... I am not a secret lesbian or even a lesbian at all...... I am hetero and thinking of going to some sort of "Hetero Pride" to encourage me to express my sexuality with out feeling ashamed !!!!! I feel I am part of a minority on the list.... does that entitle me to government funding, can I maybe get a grant to study the effect of conforming to society's narrow viewpoint? Ooh how much to ask for ...how much is that worth? Hmmmmm (thinks with fingers wriggling in a miserly sort of way) Can I get anger management for my longing to hit people who are judgemental, who would not dream of walking a mile in anyone else's shoes in case they got a verucca or worse still, the shoes were unfashionable? What I like about the list though is the amazing cross section of everyone and all brought together because of a liking/loving/passionate feeling for Joni's music... I have never had so many wonderful mails from unknown people and every day and there is always something to spark my brain into life.... I am a fundraiser for a large children's charity and so work from home when not press ganging students into wringing money from their parents....It can be isolating so you make my day that much brighter and I don't feel so lonely......... I have a horrible cold by the way and am going to bed clutching a glass of whisky with hot lemon and honey.....anyone got any other cold remedies? Lucy
