----------------------------Original message----------------------------
I must recommend the conversations of Walt Crawford, KAREN S. SUMMERHILL,
et. al. that is being posted on PACS-L an other net locations.

Not only is the substantive material most interesting, the subtext is the
most interesting I have seen in ages, too.

I have searched all the Semptember references and have not found the note
quoted as being the orginal mention of the "Lawyer from Hell" or "Devil's
Advocate" (advocatus diaboli), if anyone can forward me that one.

I would like to see this conversation, now labeled "Dead trees. . ." keep
going, if the participants are willing.
