Hi all--I have gotten lots of private queries about the piece by Ann Bradley,
in Living Marxism, that was so negative about bf. Apparently lots of you have
written comments about it! I am glad to hear this. Here is the response the
webmaster for the LM site sent to one indignant bf advocate--it gives the
correct site to send your seething and/or lucid comments.
Keep up the good work, ya'll! This is one extremely anti-bf columnist who
will think twice about contributing another such biased, opinion-presented-as-
fact piece.

<<Dear all,
Thanks for your messages about Anne's article. Unusual to receive so many
about a two-year-old piece.
Anyway, If you would like a wider readership than the one and only
webmaster, may I suggest you contribute to the 'Discuss' area of LM Online
- for that is what it is for. There is already one thread called Milk - but
that is about a very different (and completely unrelated) topic. Go to:
<http://www.informinc.co.uk/interaction$forum>
Contributions should be kept below 500 words for two reasons:
i) People tend to read shorter messages and ignore or lose interest with
longer ones (sorry to the kind soul among you who sent me a 27 page email -
you sure know how to win friends... )
ii) Our software has an annoying tendency to arbitrarily cut of some of the
longer contributions in the more populated threads - we don't know why but
we are working on it.
This is not to 'gag' anybody - just an attempt to make sure as many as
posible are read.
To answer a couple of the queries raised - but not about the content
The correct URL is
http://www.informinc.co.uk/LM/LM92/LM92_Taboos.html
and not what some people have tried.
Anne's column is an opinion piece which she contributes every month.
There was lots, lots more - but open up a public debate about it rather
than besieging my in-box.
All the best,
David
LM Online Webmaster
