	1) Most of the world thinks Anton LaVey fucked Marilyn Monroe.  
Most of the world thinks Michael Aquino fucked three year-old girls.  
Perhaps you could offer me some speculation as to which is more skilled 
at LBM?

	2) LaVey's _The Satanic Bible_ has sold over 600,000 copies.   It 
offers an informed and coherent world-view.  Aquino hears messages from 
castrated anteaters from space, whose philosophy is cribbed wholesale 
from Arthur C. Clarke's _Childhood's End_ and _2001_.   

	3) I'd much rather see Blanche Barton naked than Lilith Aquino.

	4) CoS members include productive artists like Marilyn Manson, 
the Electric Hellfire Club, and Adam Parfrey.  The ToS had the lead 
guitarist from Motley Crue, until he wised up and quit.  

	5) Anton LaVey recovered nicely from his bankruptcy -- far better 
than Michael Aquino recovered from the child molestation accusations 
lodged against him at the Presidio.  (Can you say "processed out?" I knew 
you could.  The next time you're in the law library checking out Anton 
LaVey's bankruptcy check out West's Federal Reporter, _Aquino v. Stone_).

	Just a few helpful hints.

Peace
