Mr. North,

I wanted you to know how much I have enjoyed your book, "Rapture Fever." As a recovering "addict" about whom you write, it has been a pleasure to read such a well written expose' of the "Captain Jesus" movement. There have been many things about "dispenSENsationalism" that have troubled me, and you have written about them in a very consise and often humorous way.

Thank you for taking the time to write the book, and for the abuse you have endured from the magic bus crowd.

Say! Good idea, Jeffrey. I've wanted to e-mail Mr. North but figured my message would get lost in the sheaves. I've never read any of your books, Gary, but have subscribed off and on over the last ten years, and renewed my subscription effective about November of 1997, just in time to begin keeping abreast of your Y2K analyses and prep recommendations, tips, insights, and ruminations ..... It would be hard now to express the range and depth of my most sincere gratitude for your persistence and tirelessness in beating the Y2K drum ... in season, out of season, all that. So I'll state it publicly here, where so often I find the SHGN long before ever the SHTF: thanks, many thanks, regardless of the outcome. I do truly admire your spine. TNX.

Oh, sure, please feel free to use this forum as your vehicle to send personal correspondence to Gary North, especially on non-Y2K topics. I mean, what else is this forum here for?

Morons.

Umh, it's also here to discuss gold and the stockmarket, and contrails , chemtrails and other trails. And then I guess it's here for you to find women to mudwrestle with (smile). And late at night, now and then, Mr. Hyatt has been here which is pretty exciting, besides enjoying the messages of the interesting people who hang out here between 1 and 3 AM. I hope you find some more women to mud wrestle with so you won't be in such an irritable mood, King of Spain!! Otherwise...I would probably recommend you just drink more heavily.

Oops, I meant Mr. Yourdon.

-- Psychotic (y2k@doom&gloom.com), November 10, 1999.

No, you had it right the first time, it is I that am always trying to find women that like to mudwrestle, not Ed.

I'll take your suggestion under advisement. 'Tis the season, almost....

AWWwwww Come on Mr. King of Spain!

Lighten up a little will ya? After all, no one has said any thing about the multitudes of love letters you have written to Mr. Decker, Y2K Pro, and Andy (to name a few). not to mention the the lip stick you managed to leave in the astrix. LOL

Come to think of it...Dr. North; sir thank you very much for your efforts in trying to warn people of the possible troubles coming our way.(So there! KoS you have some one else to fume at )...chuckle. And you do it so well to. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Shakey~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Personal thanks publicly expressed.

The King is dead. Long Live the King.

The ironic thing is that radical Postmillenialists and radical Dispensationalist while being at opposite ends of the specturm, end up mimicing each others behavior quite well.

King of Spain,

Did you forget to take your medication today or are you having premenstural syndrome? hehehe

Dear King of Spain,

Nevermind the snipes. You consistantly make me laugh, and that's worth a lot in these serious times. I delight in each new 'lady' poster, waiting to see your "...and by the way, do you like to mudwrestle?" It reminds me there is life after life and life after Y2K. It also displays your across-the-board fondness for the female form and a perverse optimism. I have an image of you perched on the edge of a dark mud pit, holding a flashlight, grinning, and munching on a plate of rice and beans.
