[Lnc-business] Fwd: Re: An article that may be of interest to the members of the Libertarian National Committee

Thank you Ms. Adams.  I do hope that this body finds my RONR citations
interesting reads as well and stop attacking the messenger and dealing with
the message.

*In Liberty,*

* Personal Note:  I have what is commonly known as Asperger's Syndrome
(part of the autism spectrum).  This can affect inter-personal
communication skills in both personal and electronic arenas.  If anyone
found anything offensive or overly off-putting (or some other social faux
pas), please contact me privately and let me know. *
