Oh dear, this is just getting outta hand. Let me clarify. The long posting I made, and the even longer one referring to Alice, were automatically generated by the Complaints Generator. (link in the top message of this thread). Mine was an experiment with the "company name" option of the complaints generator where I used "Mudcat Cafe" as the company name. It was intended strictly as a Joke! But a scary one since the bombast produced by the generator so closely resembles many half-baked letters to the editor that not everyone catches on to this.

What Alice did that _I_ was referring to was start this thread and post the link to the complaint generator. As for the other one don't ask--but nobody took the time to write all that silly stuff. I gather Alice is a very nice person and I'm not mad at her at all. She had a particular reason for making the Complaint Generator available to Catters, ask her or me privately but it's not my place to mention it publicly.

If you want to try something even odder, which requires a bit more imagination on your part than the Complaint Generator. check out the automatic Dave Barry Column generator.
