Gee Christine, when you get upset your sentence structure goes all out of wack or something! What does this mean anyway. :-) <<<what you don't see, to understand it that you made what is to most people who are reading this a fairly outrageous claim--that transsexauls are getting sex >>> Sorry you lost me there. All I said was I didn't want to pay for them. I never claimed they were happening in prisons across the country. The reason I made that remark, was because there was a case recently in Oregon (I believe) where the inmate claimed he was entitled to a sex change operation while he was in prison. The inmate took the state to court. The outcome as far as I know has not been decided yet. This is another perfect example of how you distort what people have written. I simply said I didn't want to pay for it. I figured you or someone else had heard of the recent controversy over the court case. Apparently in your case the answer is no. Ok. Let me repeat this so that even you can not distort what I have said. I never said prisoners are getting sex-change operations. I did say I didn't want to pay for them in reference to a recent court case. Now, let's see how you can distort this one Christine. :-) Michael

Christine, res-<<<Now you have not answered my question--if second hand smoke is not dangerous, why is the cancer and heart disease rate so very high for waitresses? And also for people who have lived with smokers but have never smoked themselves? There have been many studies of these groups of people, and I can show them to you.>>> Yes, I would like to see those many studies which show that waitresses have very high rates of heart disease and cancer, and the proof that it is caused by second hand smoke. Very high huh?? Oh Yes, do bring them here for examination. :-) Michael
