    That's a lie Goo. Polly from an AW organization up north did, and so did   
   the   
   girl from the ag college, and so did Marl, and so did didderot. In fact Marl   
   told you specifically that what I'm referring to is so far over your head you   
   can't comprehend, which of course certainly seems to be the case from my pov.   
   Every person who specifically favored AW has agreed with me Goober. Ward Clark   
   and Rich Etter never specifically favored AW, which is why those two couldn't   
   appreciate what I point out imo. They don't really care about the AW part Goob,   
   just the anti-elimination part. And in fact that particular distinction between   
   those two and all of the AW people is ANOTHER reason why you clearly seem to be   
   an eliminationist.
