Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 I'm quite sure he's not an LPA member. You can look up various newspaper profiles of him over the years and see that he denies that he even has dwarfism. Of course he doesn't have a typical dwarfism condition, and he's quite a bit taller than people with achondroplasia or diastrophic dysplasia, so it's probably more ignorance than anything else.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 I met Reich yesterday!!!!!!!!!!! He is around 4'8 " . He signed my copy of " Locked in the Cabinet " (which, by the way, starts with him having both hips replaced.) We spoke about Alan Greenspan and Arnold Swartzenegger. Reich is a witty, insightful speaker. I encourage you all to read his new book " Reason.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Did you measure him? ;-) He's always described as being 4'10 1/2 " . He's a pretty interesting guy. Certainly would have been a far better choice for governor of Mass. than what we've got. Dan On 5/22/04 11:39 AM, " cecilierose@... " <cecilierose@...> wrote: > I met Reich yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 I'm glad to see someone else appreciates Reich's intelligence. He should have attended the D3 regional informal seminar- he would have learned everything about what's wrong with men and why women are nothing but victims who can't overcome social stereotypes. Of course, his intelligence would allow him to see right through the ridiculousness of the conversation and recognize the truth- women are more than victims and have the power within to overcome social norms, and men can do the same with their positive traits as well. You'd think LP's would already know this stuff- sheez!! (laughing at wondering if I'm asking too much).
