What Katie had to say was a complete non-sequiter to what I had to say - it
didn't relate, I couldn't tell what her real point was through the sarcasm,
she effectively misquoted me, and seemed to be under the impression that I

P. will point out, I'm not a Libertarian). All I got was a sense of
hostility and I really am not sure why. Since she has chosen not to respond
to my follow-up message to her, I can only presume that she likes that
boulder sitting there.
Oh well.
