BUDDHA-L has been recognized by the Department of Homeland Security as an 
intelligence-free zone. Since it takes a certain amount of intelligence to 
maintain an ego, I assume that means this list is also an ego-free zone.

In the past there were more people who seriously needed ribbing. Most of them 
eventually took the hint and unsubscribed. Since you always delivered some of 
our prime ribs back when you were in your prime, I figured your relative 
silence in recent years was due to a want of people worthy of ribbing. But 
that is no doubt projection on my part.
