Re: To TPRS teachers
Posted by jmho on 5/09/08

    I do not get bent out of shape when reading posts about this topic unless
    they are filled with rhetoric, thumping, and commercials to attend workshops
    and buy books. There are some postings that are actually helpful and
    interesting. I was asking that the ones that are bordering on, as you said
    so eloquently, "some kind of scientology/TPRS subculture" be toned down a
    bit as to be less annoying. By the way, weird that you think "that's kinda
    funny", but whatever.
    I certainly did not think it was "kinda funny" when you had a fit over who
    does and does not celebrate cinco de mayo. I thought it was "kinda odd".
