Guest guest Posted November 27, 1999 Report Share Posted November 27, 1999 Did the person say that s/he was a member of LPA on the show? Irene, I believe Butch reiterated that the person was a member, and with him being a member for over 25 years, as well as his wife being a past National District Director and past National President, he should know. >From: Irene Yuan <yuan@...> >dwarfismonelist >Subject: Springer/our response >Date: Sat, 27 Nov 1999 10:33:12 -0800 (PST) > >Butch, > >Did the person say that s/he was a member of LPA on the show?

Guest guest Posted November 27, 1999 Report Share Posted November 27, 1999 Irene Since I've gone to many, many conventions there are people that I recognize from meeting them in person to our magazine call LPA TODAY. Like I said a friend call me who is AVERAGE SIZE and is against ANY acts of demeanor towards LPA. I do have some friends who 99.9% comment on how it's nice to see intelligent LP'S on different shows. It's nice that they can live in both worlds and be appreciated for what they do for and with LPA. And Irene, I've even played SPORTS against the LP who was following Springer. But there's always that 1% for some reason that has to make a FOOL of themselves and another stereotype is connected to LPA. Like I said, I'm voicing my opinion on what I saw and THAT was distasteful in my eyes, and also in my friend eyes otherwise I wouldn't have gotten the phone call last night and saying how pissed off she was at what was on the SPRINGER SHOW.
