Theos-Talk Archives (May 1999ar Message tt00083)

Jerry,

Your comments on the TS, the Red Cross and passing the hat around never
crossed my mind until they emerged from yours and you mentioned it here.
You have some intersting thoughts.

I have simply been responding to statements that you and others have made in
this forum.

...Peter
