BURMA BARS STANFORD TOUR GROUP (r)

[PILLAI@xxxxxxxxx]

You need not worry about my reading habits.  I shall read what I like 
and make my own judgement on it.  Why are so edgy about that?  Are 
you telling me that, in your perception of democracy, I do not have 
that right?  In any case, why are you so het up that there is another 
view of what is happening in Burma, and that certainly is not what 
the Slorc view.  In any case, when did you get that right to decide 
who should and should not, in the time honoured principle of 
democratic choice, read or not read?
