: : : : : : : **Sent to me by my college roommate, the wife of a Major in the Air Force in Alabama

: : : : : : : Diana S.

: : : : : : WOW!!!  Is that how we are being seen abroad?  Maybe this is something else good that is coming from that horrible tragedy.
: : : : : : C.

: : : : : Chris, don't exaggerate. This is how you are being seen by the writer of an Editorial of a Rumanian newspaper.  

: : : : : Ilse

: : : : ~~~~~~~~~~
: : : : Diana, where in Alabama?  And, Ilse, take another look.

: : : : Theresa
: : : : ~~~~~~~~~~~

: : : Another look at what, Theresa? That editorial?

: : : Ilse

: : ~~~~~~~
: : You could start there with the editorial.  Then come on over and see for yourself what's going on here.  Or you can check with Adelle when she gets back from her trip.  I don't want to get into a word battle here, you can understand, I'm sure, that things are somewhat tense and we get a little sensitive when our world has been blown to bits and our patriotism is called into question.

: er....did I miss a post?  exactly when was anyones patriotism called into question?  The way I see it...Ilse made an extremely valid point...which was (and I KNOW you will correct me if I am wrong, Ilse...hehehe) that the editorial is just ONE perspective written by ONE individual and therefore Chris' response of 'is that how we are being seen abroad?' was stretching it a little!

: Theresa, you made the point that everyone is a little sensitive...and that is perfectly understandable under these awful circumstances...and all the more reason for us to take a step back, count to ten, and try to maintain an open mind.

: Hmmm...d'ya think I could use that as Huggy's thought for the day?  All that brain activity has me all tuckered out......
