(There’ll Be Bluebirds Over) The White Cliffs Of Dover Glenn Miller Written by Nat Burton and Walter Kent. As recorded by the Glenn Miller on November 24th 1941 with Ray Eberle. There’ll be bluebirds over The white cliffs of Dover Tomorrow, just you wait and see There’ll be love and laughter And peace ever after Tomorrow, when the world is free The shepherd will tend his sheep The valley will bloom again And Johnny will go to sleep In his own little room again There’ll be bluebirds over The white cliffs of Dover Tomorrow, just you wait and see...!

LOL! Next you'll be asking me to define it, right? Do a search on the words "homosexuals" and "gay" on the RWET since January and "dig right in".

This has been dealt with. Poet has admitted that she is unable to cite any post where jlallen has expressed anything she would term homophobia. She has further said that she made her comment based on the fact that when comments which she considered homophobic were made on the RWET, he didn't immediately spring in and disavow them. (She gave a reference to one, but it turned out that jla was away the day that was posted.) Anyhow, she holds him responsible for running a thread on which other people post what she considers to be homophobic posts, and which he doesn't actively disavow. So that's been covered. Whether or not you consider that enough justification for calling jla homophobic, PLEASE let's not get into ANOTHER one of these wars. We will drive away whatever remaining interesting posters might still be hanging around hoping things will get back to being more generally interesting here. Or, if you really need to go over this with Poet, please take the suggestion made here recently and do it in PMs. If what you really want is clarification, that will suffice. If what you really want to do is try to score points publicly, well, please be man enough not to.
