Yes Karen. You must tell everyone you meet that you stole bread in Acapulco in 1963. I order you to do this.

I also find it fascinating. Why were you in Acapulco and why were you stealing bread? Had you been sold by white slavers into a terrible life of sin, transported to Acapulco, ran away, and when you were starving stole some bread? Were you a hippy drifting around Acapulco living on what you could steal? Were you just a kleptomaniac? I'm so curious. I never stole bread in my life, so I really want to hear the full story on this.

Hmmm. Your comment on SI Aliases made me rethink my position a bit. Because certainly the ability to be incognito here, to not be held accountable for what one says, in some -- many? -- cases seems to encourage irresponsible posting.

In general, though, I agree with you.

Though I admit I am shocked -- SHOCKED -- to learn that you are a thief -- as JC would say, once a thief, always a thief.

I wonder whether he will be willing to continue posting to someone of such a background.

Well, even if he isn't, I am.

You ... You ... You .... stole bread in Acapulco?????

Why would anybody steal bread in Acapulco? Italy, yes. Israel, maybe. Syria, I could understand. But Acapulco??? Obviously you were not in your right mind. We'll just forget it.

Well, we've come a long way from a cop killer to stealing bread. (Did you really mean Acapulco?)

I'm not talking about volunteering tiddly-wink little secrets about ourselves. (That place in Mexico?)

I was referring to matters important enough to have become part of a public record ... a criminal past ... flunking out of college ... being dishonorably discharged ... things like that. And even then, I'm not saying you have go around telling everyone.

I'm saying that you have no moral right to attempt, deliberately, to cover such matters up, conceal them from the public view, and expunge them from your record as if they had never happened.

To go back to go --- I think changing your name to deceive others with this objective in mind should not be allowed.

(Mexican bread????)
