Douglas has got a lot wrong, in my view." For Douglas: George is quite correct that he and I frequently have different points of view on many topics, so Douglas, the fact that he and I agree on almost every aspect of these two topics which you're currently posting on should tell you one of two things. Either: 1) You may need to re-think these things that you're so sure of. Those "sacred cows" might be grazing in your garden, rather than ours. Or: 2) The end of the world is nigh. ;-) -FER --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Navigation List archive: www.fer3.com/arc To post, email NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
