Please re-read the thread on reading for money. There is not a single post
there that says this. On the other hand, there are many there, written by you,
insulting people who do charge fees.

Shouldnt this have read "I don't think Karma means what you..."
Or are you a mind-reader/psychic now too?

Why do so many seem to think they know what the other person means,thinks or

Mystic Phil, I consider myself to be a Tarot reader, yet I do not
charge for my web services, nor did I request a definite sum when I
performed the readings in person (I merely requested a coin).

The decision whether to charge, what to charge or whether to not
charge at all is an individual decision.

You are kidding right, Phil? I mean, you may have had a few hippie
dippy weatherman out there but they were not making any money nor
making any significant contribution to advance the study or
understandy of astrology or tarot (unless you are making a reference
to that "Age of Aguarius" stage show). As far as real astrologers/
readers and pioneers of the universal mind, you have precious
few...Carl Jung, Robert Hand comes to mind, Jean Dixon (and this gal
was doing this way before country was cool), and of course the Parkers
(Derek and Julia)... Before this you have to travel to the G.D.

What you would want to include Kreskin, I suppose, you have his magic
cubes, or maybe one of those funny little eight balls perhaps...

If I'd been writing in e-prime, sure. I tend not to, though, because it
tends to have as much bite as a sleeping man on heavy novocaine wearing
nerf dentures.

> Or are you a mind-reader/psychic now too?

Why do you say "too"? The original poster made exactly two statements,
neither of which was "I am a mind-reader/psychic". If you intend to pick
nits with semantic accuracy (and do so with any sort of teeth), it is
helpful to manage the same thing yourself.

> Why do so many seem to think they know what the other person means,thinks or
> knows these days?

In general terms, the phenomenon is called "projection", and it isn't a
problem limited to the present day. I gather you think I'm guilty of it,
so let's go to specifics:

Two statements were made: "Please stop being so critical of each other"
and "Don't you believe in Karma". Faced with this, I made several
assumptions:

1) The poster intended these two statement/requests to have some kind of
coherent connection to one another.

2) The poster felt that this connection was a logical one.

3) The poster felt the nature of this logical connection was that
"believing in karma" would make the necessity of ceasing of "being so
critical of each other" self-evident.

4) "Karma" is believed to mean a certain thing(s), in order that
believing in it would satisfy #3. Generally speaking, this tends to be a
kind of vague "karma's gonna getcha if you doan watch out" attitude;
which makes #4 an assumption based on a generalization, but that's an
acceptable risk, since my own sentence is absolutely correct no matter
who you apply it to (that includes myself).

The whole chain of logic falls apart if, horrors, "Karma" turns out to
mean something that doesn't support it. A terse response gave the best
overall chance of giving pause to think, when compared to the same
chances of a lengthier speech causing someone to stop and think.

I do allot of free readings, for family and friends, I also do free first
readings free, when people come back to me the second time I make a charge

mind up Its his gift, People should do as they please, NOBODY should ever
put you down over this, some of the best readings I have received have been
for free Well done Mystic Phil.. TOP MAN.

I see you have gone from "80% accuracy" to "great success". Congratulations.
At your current rate of achievement, by next week you should be up to at least
125% accuracy.

The next time you are in "need", such as being sick, try telling a doctor that
you think charging a person when they are down is not an ethical thing to do.
You may die before he finishes laughing.

You brag about all the people who are inundating you for requests for readings,
as though this is some great vote of confidence in your character and
abilities, when the real reason is that your readings and character do not have
to meet any criteria, because your readings are FREE, so what do they have to
lose?

As I've said before (one of the various points to which you have preferred not
to respond), I would feel very unethical and exploitive were I to ask another
person for anything for which I did not offer something in return. You are
leading people into the temptation of taking advantage of another, as well as
being more self-perceived martyr than humanitarian.

But, let me diverge for a moment. If reading cards were the ONLY way in which
a person could generate income (because of some sort of disability or
whatever), and otherwise s/he would have to live on welfare, would you still
think that s/he should give away their services?

Celebrate!

Please Sue, your splinters are starting to show. We have all done pro
bono work, if there is a decision to war or not to war... Where the
blood of our brothers is at stake, and our freedom. I think we know
where to draw the line... sometimes it is a simple line in the sand,
from which there is no retreat and no surrender.

I am just trying to make you understand that I am a traditional
astrologer, in the ancient sense of the word. This is a position that
one not enter into lightly. I suppose that there are professionals
and there are professionals... some see their duty in diffrent light.
I take a less compassionate approch but it does not mean that I am
void of compassion, like when Patton slapped the soilder to try and
get him to snap out of it... it either kills us or makes us stronger.

Sorry...That was an indirect reference to some other post of the same vein from
someone else,not you or the original poster of the content in
question......There seem to be a few "high & mighty's" floating arond the NG
with the illusion that they know what people are thinking,saying, meaning
better than the poster...I was simply asking if you were of that type as
well......But in a joking manner.

So she should have been specific and said "bad Karma" instead of simply Karma?

Well, one thing you are unquestionably 'void of' is any knowledge
about tarot.

Since you insist on pretending to the contrary, particularly with
people you might try to sucker into paying you for 'training',
I'd say you're damned low on compassion as well.

> like when Patton slapped the soilder to try and

Patton slapped the soldier because Patton was a sociopath
(which is basically a requirement to be a military officer),
who could not cope with the idea that his orders had
dire consequences for the psyches (not to mention, bodies)
of the men under his command. He was reprimanded for
the behavior and later apologized, perhaps without sincerity,
for his action.

If you're trying to compare yourself to Patton, I think you
might want to, as he put it, 'read the book', which is something
you clearly have not done, at least not to any obvious impact
on your ability to write knowledgeably about---well, anything.

> it either kills us or makes us stronger.

Or bores us with your peabrained versions of military history
cum caveman philosophy.

Well, he did get the job done... Run Rommel clear out of North Africa,

No, I'm speaking about YOU, you idiot.

Your track record here is open for all to review on Deja News.

Of course, it's helpful to readers to know that you've changed your
name from Susan Kline (or Klein) to Tony Tiger. But you're still
the same spamming jackass you always have been. Your only
motive here is to fuck up alt.tarot with stupid comments because
the readers of this group asked you not to advertise here anymore.

You might recall Susan's posts from last year, look for the
'Now Seeking Tarot Managers for 900 Line Status' thread
from October, 1997 on Deja News.

So do you all recall how TT claims (s)he would never take any of
us for his (or her) 'operation' cause his company only takes
the 'best', the 'cream of the crop'.

Let me show you what he's talking about---here is one of the
cups of 'cream' he's decided to try skimming for 'readers'---

As for why she made the switch in names, well, a couple of
possibilities:

1. She fucked up and used the correct spelling of her last name.
There is a Susan Klein who lives in Spartanburg, SC, which is
where 'Astro Services' is located. Previously she had spelled it
'Kline', I suppose to throw 'them' off the track. At any rate,
a couple of days after this, Tony Tiger was born.

2. Also, maybe she wanted us to forget she was the idiot who
posted crap like the following:

Subject: War

Forums: alt.tarot

Astrologically speaking, the war in the Gulf should began around 5:00
EST. You will have a solar eclipse in the first house of Pisces...
The first house is naturally under Aries rulership. This arian type
energy is most closely related to Mars, God of War. Just remember you
heard it here first. People always seem to complain because our
predictions are not specific enough.

The prediction is not broad at all, it will begin something during the
solar eclipse of Feb. 26th. I forget that all are not astrologers at
this site... As to when you decide to tie you shoe laces or anything
else that you might think important... In the whole scheme of things
it does not matter that much now does it.

You all remember the 'war in the Gulf' that began around
'5:00 EST' 'during the solar eclipse of Feb. 26th.'

No, I didn't. I got 'it' and you right between your beady little
con-artist eyes.

It doesn't really matter what kind of stupid excuse you have
for the fact you experienced a sudden name change. The point
is that you're a spammer, and that your only interest in posting
to this newsgroup is to piss on it because people told you
to quit advertising here.

> Look you stupid geek, I was using my x's computer,

Oh look, a variation on the 'it's my student's fault' ploy.

Now it's 'my x's computer.'

It doesn't really matter what name is attached to these postings
from your company, your only motive for posting here is to
get some kind of moronic revenge for the fact that people here
agreed with your 'x' and rejected your advances.

I'll bet you'd like to snip the ad you placed on alt.sex.prostitution
but you can't. You made it. You live with it.

The ads were placed by you, weren't they? You were their recruiter,
weren't you? That's what you do for a living, isn't it?

You make money recruiting for, and running, 'psychic'
telemarketing scams. That's why you don't care where you get
the bodies (or the 'cream'). To you, tarot is just a tool
of the grift, and nothing more.

What I understand is that you are a con artist and a liar

You wouldn't know an honest 'point of information' if it were
driven like a stake into your heart.

That's not interesting, that's just more evidence that TT is a liar.

If you're having trouble finding the post, try doing an author
profile for astr...@bellsouth.net. You'll find the post to
alt.sex.prostitution.

For some reason, dejanews will not return the same post if
you just run a check on 'astroguy' as author, but when I checked
astr...@bellsouth.net as author for the forum, alt.sex.prostitution,
the post also came up.

You can also try searching for phrases in the post. Sometimes that
works, sometimes not.

You just cannot accept a fact when you are wrong... And no, me and

All ads were placed to the groups that had the most traffic...

alt.sex.prostitution, that is something of your contrivarence... As it

Obviously, I'm not in agreement that Tony is grrreeeaaattt, however, I found it
interesting that Jess claims an ad on alt.sex.prostitution, and Tony denies

one, which seems like it should be simple enough to prove one way or another.
However, on jaunting on over to Deja News, although I can find many ads from
Tony's e-mail address, I can find no trace of such an ad in
alt.sex.prostitution, either when I call up astr...@bellsouth.net for that
newsgroup for any date, past or current, or when I just call up the newsgroup
itself for the indicated day. Perhaps someone can tell me what I am doing
wrong, or if this sort of thing sometimes happens in Deja News.

Thanks for the tip, but I only had limited success. On an author profile it is
indicated that a post was made to alt.sex.prostitution, although when clicked
on (as with most of the newsgroups Tony was listed as posting on) the stupid
report came back as "no matches".

Through the linking of Tarot/telephone sex/prostitution that I have seen
lately, I am beginning to see just how exploitive psychic lines are, and why
some people compare the managers to pimps. Unfortunately, there is a great
yearning out there for what readers have to offer, with no effective way for
the average reader to respond, which, of course, is what creates the market for
these phone lines.

Anyway, Jess, you helped me, even if inadvertently, reconcile my thinking on
this topic, and I thank you for it.

Presumably Sue believes that "bad Karma" occurs when "all Tarot Reader"
are "critical to one another"; the converse is that "good Karma" results
if "all Tarot Reader" aren't "critical to one another".

The upshot of this is, the statement would have merited the same response
even with the monosyllable-of-choice stuck in front of it.

I think Deja News might be having some kind of technical problem.
For example, this AM, when I checked on the message, initially
it reported 'no match' and then when I reloaded the screen,
it found the message. At any rate, you DID verify a match in
the author profile.

> Through the linking of Tarot/telephone sex/prostitution that I have seen

They're just a telemarketing scam. They always have been.

And they are a big reason why people will continue to think of
tarot reading as something only con artists or idiots would
do. It's looked at as being either a salve for the emotional
problems of mental midgets or the poor, or an 'employment
opportunity' for grifters and their prostitutes.

That's partly why I've been so aggressive in targeting their
ads here---they're not ontopic and they are promoting an
abusive and exploitative co-opting of tarot for unethical
(and in some cases, criminal) activity.

> Anyway, Jess, you helped me, even if inadvertently, reconcile my thinking on

You're welcome.

For those who would like to see some of the ways in which I've
'assisted' the psychic-scam industry over the years, refer
to:

http://zenpop.home.mindspring.com/links.html

Read the page, it's pretty funny, and links to other slams against
the telepsychic industry. The link to my stuff is at the bottom,
under 'Newsgroup Mania'---and no, I didn't provide this material
to this site, they seemed to think it was amusing. Most of
it was written at a time when we were getting really buried by
telepsychic spam. I always try to do my part in 'helping'
the spammers to feel 'welcome' (to get the hell out of here).

You can e-mail anything. Deja News has the objective record
of what you've posted, and it shows you posted to
alt.sex.prostitution and a bunch of other sex groups
looking for victims.

Yeah, and you help make it true by recruiting and employing

Of course, that's cause it's REALLY there, and TT is a liar
when he says otherwise.

So, if he'll think nothing of lying about that, AND given the
nature of his 'profession', which is based on lying, what aspect
of his character or his behavior (especially as these have been
manifested on this newsgroup for WAY too long) suggests we
should believe anything he says about anything?

Uh-oh, looks like he found it 'in his files'. Now suddenly it's
a 'good idea'.

Of course it's a good idea for you, just like it was when you
posted to alt.sex.prostitution in the first place. You're looking
for prostitutes. But it's not even fair to call you a pimp (it
gives pimps a bad name)---you're selling blowjobs without the
blow (suck or snow), you're just a tick. And that shall be
your name from now on.

Your 'real' name is Tony the Tick.

How come I'm the lying jerk if other people are finding the same
file? Are they lying jerks too?

I don't think so.

As you now admit, you agree that posting to alt.sex.prostitution
was a 'good idea' for you. What else can you do, now that you've
been shown to be a liar. I guess you could start arguing about
what the meaning of 'is' is---but you're smoked---just like the
POS cigar you try to poke into all your victims.

You mean in 'America'? In America, telemarketing fraud is a
serious crime with serious penalties. If you stay in your

'free country' does not mean 'free for criminals', jackass.

The First Amendment has nothing to do with protecting your
'right' to swindle marks.

I see a shift occurring here from a focus on the appropriateness of advertising
for psychic line employees in a forum such as alt.sex.prostitution, to a
question of why Tony would lie and think he could get away with it.

I have serious problems with the idea of advertising for employees in such a
forum. Since psychic ability or experience is not implicit in the topic of the
newsgroup, what IS implicit about the average participant that the advertiser
is hoping to tap into? And what is that saying about the integrity of the
industry and its representatives?

I think the original issue is in danger of getting lost here. Since you had no
way of knowing that Tony was going to lie (although I doubt you were surprised
when he did), I do not think that the off-chance that he would is why you
brought this to the attention of the newsgroup.

Tony as an individual is not nearly so important a question as Tony as a
representative of his industry.

Celebrate!

But it's more than this, commercial advertisers have often seen
any suggestion that they should curtail their activities here,
or even the idea that we have a right to question the claims
made in their ads, to be a violation of their 'freedom of speech'.

We have often had advertisers, who have been asked to stop
advertising here, try then to hang around in some capacity,
either to try and get rid of their critics (principally me,
of course), so as to free up the space for their continued
spamming, or, as is the case here, to obtain some kind of
stupid revenge against the group for wanting to take tarot,
and not commercial advertising, seriously.

In addition to this, however, is the question of what relevance
the telepsychic industry actually has to a newsgroup like
alt.tarot. I would argue that relevance is minimal and only
in a negative aspect. Tony's behavior here has often been
that of the apologist for his industry, and he certainly
has a right to be and to do that, but when he is confronted
by evidence that suggests his industry is rife with
misrepresentation and fraud, he just claims those complaints
come from people who were 'disgruntled ex-telepsychics',
or were in some other way not the 'cream of the crop' he claims
to be interested in employing. He was not motivated, in other
words, to engage in a constructive debate about this question,
or any other question.

This is made all the more tiresome when he has consistently
been challenged to show that his knowledge of this topic
is sufficient to suggest he would be able to identify
'reader cream' if he spotted it, and he has always refused
the challenge. On the few occasions he's offered an opinion
about tarot, it's always been based on ignorance of even the
most basic facts relevant to the topic, or even to the more
general idea of reading fortunes with cards.

He's been having a free (in other words, relatively painless)
ride here for too long.

It was time to do some serious weeding, and he's been the biggest
weed we've had to endure around here all year.

Well, make it a menage-a-trois, because I saw that ad on
alt.sex.prostitution too. As well as the post you made to
alt.sex.telephone.ads.

Though I'm not sure why you're trying so hard to deny it. You
admitted being a scammer a long time ago when you were first
arguing with Etteila (remember the "for entertainment purposes
only" dodge you tried?)

We already know you're a con artist. We already know you have
nothing useful to say about Tarot. Why are you even bothering
with this useless and transparent lie, when ANYONE who knows how
to use Deja can verify the facts for themselves with a minimum of
effort? This pathetic exercise can't possibly be intended to
salvage your reputation. You don't have one.

>The Big Lie, right jk. You think you can say some loud

Over on the psychic line site to which you provided a link, there is
interesting commentary on your responses to recruiters, as the assumption is
made that alt.tarot is a gathering place for people anxious to have their
fortunes told, so why shouldn't it be the ideal place for such advertising?
"Poor" Maggie (as I recall the name being) is especially considered to be
unjustifiably victimized by you, since she simply hawks her individual wares,
rather than being of psychic line gendre.

Ah, yes. On another thread Tony said that he "just knows" (mind-reader that he
is) that my readings are worthless, and that I am, in truth, as "shown" by my
body language (damn, the man is clairvoyant too!) just a lusty wench in need of
what he has to offer--which, as I recall, was described as "a fair-sized root"
that he was having anticipatory difficulty in restraining even as he spoke.

The ploy to change the topic by suggesting that I have a frustrated libido is
neither original nor laudable; neither is the suggestion that I am not to be
taken seriously, because, after all, just what is it that women are good for?

Lest anyone be tempted to dredge it up here, this is not to say that I do not
recall that you have, in the past, offered to turn a water hose on me; however,
that offer was not predicated on the avoidance of answering a question, or
reducing me to sexual objectification, so was found amusing rather than
offensive. There is a difference, of which I suspect Tony is ignorant.

There is an interesting correlation here between Tony's stated opinion of
women,
his psychic line management, and his posting of ads in such forums as
alt.sex.prostitution. In fact, if one were to examine the nature of his
responses to women here in general (I will forego specific examples or names),
one might be tempted to say the man suffers from a Madonna/Whore complex.

>He's been having a free (in other words, relatively painless)

Obviously he is well-versed in the difference between anything for free and
that of paying, both up and dearly.

Obviously, if they had something to hide and/or were aware of the option, more
people would do so. However, I suspect there are many, even so advised, who
either prefer that their words ring through the annals of time, or who will
stand in back of what they say, anytime, anywhere, or who simply don't consider
it worth the effort.

Unfortunately, there's no way to look at the headers on deja news, that I
could find. A person could fake a post as Jess Karlin on
alt.12step.egomaniacs.anonymous and who, reading deja news, would be able
to figure out that it wasn't really you?

Wait, who are you trying to protect here? I think it's pretty obvious to
anyone who has had any exposure to our feline pal that tony is far from
grrrrreat.

We, as a newsgroup, thank you for your endless diligence. You can now go
home and get some sleep.

No, I don't make any such claim, nor do I have to.

Here is very compelling evidence you wrote the post in question.

The message you wrote to alt.sex.prostitution is part of a spam you
posted on 10/19/97, which was sent out to twelve different groups.

The reason I know this is because ALL those postings are
threaded (connected), and you can confirm this by looking at
the 'thread' of the message on deja news. Even though each
individual post appears to be made to only one group, the
software which auto-posted the spam linked them in
some way, which linkage is traceable through deja news.
Some spam software can also 'stealth' the postings, stripping
relevant header information, and that's why you can't read
the full headers of TT's spams.

However, and this is the really great part, and something which
I didn't even realize till this AM when I did finally check
the thread---you had ONE reply to that series of spam messages,
one reply posted to the spam you sent to only one of the
newsgroups...alt.tarot.

Guess who wrote you the reply?

That's right. I did.

It's dated 10/23/97---and it has FULL headers:

Please note the 'reference' is to a post made (by astroguy) from
bellsouth.net, the same source of the other spams in the thread.

That proves I posted a reply to your message to this group
BACK in October of last year WHEN you originally posted
your spam. And the posting you made to alt.sex.prostitution
was part of those same spam messages, all made on the same day.

In short, this confirms that you are a rather bold, if inept,
liar. In order for your version of the story to be correct, I
would have had to generate a whole thread of faked messages,
AND posted a reply to one of them, a full 10 months before I
ever even heard of Tony Tiger.

Neat trick, but not very likely.

That's not true.

There's no way to examine FULL headers on SOME messages because
spammers, especially, can strip out relevant portions of the
headers.

As you'll see (in the posting where I talk about this), the post
made by TT to alt.sex.prostitution is part of just such a
spam.

> that I

Or Paul Mitchum on alt.irrational.idiots---except you
write the FAQ for that group, right?

Faked postings CAN happen, but the question here is whether
TT's denials are even remotely credible. In other words, do
we, based on the behavior of TT on this and other newsgroups,
think he's likely to have any ethical problems preventing
his advertising on alt.sex.prostitution.

He has already confirmed that he thinks it would be a 'good
idea' for him to advertise on that newsgroup. Why should we then
imagine that a posting to that group from him would NEED to
be, or would likely be, faked.

Given the now clear evidence that his posting was part
of a spam he sent out to several groups on the same day, there
seems to be no point in discussing this matter any further.

Of course you are allowed to place ad to up to 15 usenet groups before
it is considered spam... but to continue with your Big Lie.

What is a stealth posting?... I have never engaged in anything of the
sort. All my posts are mine (from my account), except the ones which
comes from this stealth mailer you seem to know an awefully lot about.
(wonder that one ole boy... You are so diabolical, that you snare
yourself because the normal mind does not have the capacity to set up
all hours trying to figure how to screw someone... Only you. You are
just so transparent you think you have everyone fooled but the only
fool is yourself )

Yea because you put it there... Strange how YOU were the only one, but
that does not surprise me, sorta to be expected from you.

It is clear that your ego knows no bounds... Kinda goes on forever,
don't it jk. Too big for the universal to contain. The only thing
that is greater than your ego is your powers of deceptions... Truly
amazing.

Now I have already told you that I do not have any problems with
hiring of anyone (as long as they are sincere and want to work), but I
would hope that those that I do help are not as sterile as you
obviously are... The good thing about that is, or it would appear,
that your cretin nature prevents you from procreation, so that the
world does not have to bother with any further pollution to the gene
pool:)

Glad you're catching on. It's telling that your
intelligence wouldn't've pegged that garbage right off
the bat. Can you understand, now, why the average

The human condition is One Big Yearn.....and it's not

Information is not what most people want, they whaaaant
some magic/k cure for all their ails---and anybody who
promotes themselves as One Who Can Answer, Heal,
Resolve or otherwise 'counsel', through tarot cards or
any other means of divination, is enabling-for-profit this
self-eating disease so common to humans---'desperatism'.

------------------
Have you ever noticed, when something's good it stands
on it's own? Artists, writers, musicians and other people
who develop a craft will either opt to sell their work, or not.
That decision has little to do with talent; I'm sure there
are any number of master-poems that will remain forever
buried in some author's private diary.

Point is, if any artist wants to market hir work, hir simply
shows what hir's got. Period. No 'mystery' involved; and if
the market opens itself up to the work for a fair price?
There's your match---and it's valid. ~No scamming necessary.~

> which, of course, is what creates the market

---------------
No, any 'market' based on stupidity, weakness and
vulnerability will always be exploited and always has
been. Hey, there's a 'market' for drugs, there's a 'market'
for prostitution, there's a 'market' for beenie babies.
Difference is, pimps and drug dealers actually deliver
their product. Even phone sex lines deliver what they
claim. Telepsychics claim to deliver---'answers', 'healings',
'luck', 'problem resolution', 'wealth', 'the grace of God' and
even 'miracles'---while they actually deliver...phone sex.

Yup, it's all just mental mastrubation sans the orgasm
(maybe), but still expensively addictive for the unsuspecting,
and otherwise worthless. Also, has zero to do with tarot.

My best,
L

No, a _discussion_ is allowed crossposting to other

Marketing to non-marketing groups is spam, period.

No that is YOUR take on it... Because any post of discussion maybe
considered a TOPIC of discussion... Or have you not noticed that,

If that was the case half of people posting off topic "alt.tarot"
would be considered spam... Which is what you doing at this time,
spammer.

What I do is to give people a Free opportunity to make money reading
tarot, which my dear, is much more topical than anything I have seen
in your post..

Question away... My people ar always paid. and as you may have

because I might insult the likes of yourself, but rather I have a very
good group and have no need for any alt.tarot...@dweebs.cum,

The only stupid revenge I can think of is getting rid of the tyrant
such as yourself, which would be a great boom to the topic of
discussion... Instead of wasting time, and usless off topic posting
and posturing you go through eveytime you are nailed by your very
narrow view of astrology and tarot (btw you might be interested in
knowing that R.Hand also shares my view on the antiquity of rulership,
which would seem if it is beyond your ego, it is beyond your limited
understand of both astrology and tarot).

Like the antiquity of rulership and astrological association to the
tarot, perhaps... You sure missed it by about a 1000 years.. but of
course that does not fit in your neatly narrow faq.

This whole thing got started when you got the antiquity all screwed

Heh. True. I don't really care though if private individuals archive my
posts. Even if it is for the purpose of being able to later call me on
someting I said. Or whatever all. What is more disturbing is a public
archive that anyone can access.

When I first started posting to the usenet, I was not aware of the
existance of DejaNews and so foolishly posted some very personal things
that, really, I'd rather not have people be able to read anymore. Or that
I would prefer certain people not read (like say, my parents, or
whatever). I don't mind posting personal things and having them read by
whoever is reading the newgroup at the time, it's just that I don't like
that people in the far future being able to do "research" on me. I guess
it's a common computer-age paranoia.

Another advantage of x-no-archive:yes is spam prevention.. True, a spam
trap would be much better but my university-provided email does not allow
me that option, so at least the spambots can't harvest my adress from D.N.

And I don't use the header on this newsgroup very often (anymore. I did
useit a lot about a month/couple weeks ago) because I don't post personal
stuff here, *and* when I ask a question I want as many people as possible
to be able to anwer it.

Well, that's my confession. And on a side thought, I don't think most of
my posts are actually intersting enough for a private individual to
archive them for personal use. But whatever makes you happy jk :)

Wrong. When you view a message, one of the options right underneath the

I was hoping someone would point
that out. Westerners tend to slap
Western concepts of morality on it.

Wasn't Patton near the top of his class
at West Point? He knew his military
history like most good generals.

Deja, by the way, is not the only
place you can end up archived.
Anything you post here is public.
If there's something you don't want
someone to know don't ever post it.

Karma does carry over into many areas of convergence in the Vedic
hindu but also the chi of Taoism, or so it would seem.

Do continue as of personal interest, I was invited to recieve the
ceremonial Tao, from monks that have made the trip from china to the
most the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains (in their full fire) of
Asheville, NC. This, from what I have gathered, is a very special
honor... But being "slapped with the morality" of Western concepts as
you so aptly put... respectfully declined, pending further studies.

I am not so fancinated with the working of Confucianism approach as I
am in awe of some of the thoughts of Lao-tse, which appear as almost
Jungrian in concept... except these concepts evolved and pre date Jung
by 3000 years.

Rather amazing too are the Hexgrams of the I Ching... I was gifted
with Yarrow wands on my 7th birthday, took them to 2nd grade show and
tell,,, Immeadiately branded a heretic (as mother hid their tender
daughter) this trick I learn to keep at home, under the bed, where
they whispered in my ear, in a very distant but distinctive and unique
manner I felt they spoke to me.

You not only can't write, you can't read.
Look up 'advertising'...if you can spell it.

pHA! Yeah, no need to weed those responses from
alt.sex.prostitution, eh? I'm sure they're all great card
readers, 'tiger'. About as good as you are.

All this discusion of root envy *smile* got me thinking about the Ace
of Wands.

Look at the decks you have and compare the way they portray the Ace of
Wands...the Ace of Wands is considered to be the "Root" of the
potency of fire...would you say the aces are similiar or would a
particular Ace of Wands be an object of root envy? *Smile*

Shhhhhh, be careful what heresy you speak without your papers properly
produced. Man, these FAQ answers are about as insightful as A.C. Crispin on
wheat germ. Who puked in the pen that scrawled them anyway?

I need some cookies.

Okay, I have to admit it --- in all the newsgroups I've read, I've never
seen "OBES" anywhere. So, somebody flag down the clue bus for me and tell me
what an OBES is.

Thanks! :)
