So until you and your Country have gone through the series of natural disasters we have suffered in just the past few months..............shut your pie hole. We DO have many natural (and un-natural) disasters up he floods, ice-strorms, earthquakes, fires... you guys just don't hear about them. Next time a forest fire is threatening a town, I'll call you to help me fight it. Lloyd |
