Mr. Willowby,
I would prefer that you kept your political opinions to yourself or
placed them on a more appropriate list. Please note that I am not coming
down on any side of your opinions. I would prefer that they were not on
the Triumph list. And the same goes for anyone on the list who rises to
Mr. Willowby's bait.
