Wayne,

First of all, apology accepted.  Secondly, I can completely understand
why you thought that.  It's easy to misinterpret sarcasm.  Sarcasm REALLY
requires the listener to hear the inflection of ones voice in order to
differentiate
it from seriousness.  I speak in soooo much sarcasm in the real world
that sometimes it bleeds into the digital world.

Its all good man.  Just a little good ole american sarcasm.  Trust me dude,
no one (barring a few crazy people) "over here" wants anyone to die.  And
I can tell you from this computer chair, that as Americans we are completely
and UTTERLY in the dark on this whole series of events that have happened
post-911.  Confused, scared, angry, befuddled and just overall flummoxed by
all of it.  At least I am.

So, my point in all of this is... If it seems like we are in a
Metallica state of mind
over this, and have that bad attitude towards it all, and want them
all dead... its really
the fight part of the normal "fight or flight" reaction you'd expect
from most living things.

Anyway, it's all good man, have a good evenin'

tw
