LoL ! My mother was an academic in '78 and she criticised the Khmer Rouge all the time. She was basically a leftist gone liberal. We had a cat - felix who would kill litterally hundreds of moles, mice and ground squirrels. His nickname was "Pol Pot". I guess Jim does not hail from academia. Of all the professors i have known i actually can't think of any of them that supported the Khmer Rouge and i can't think of any that would have hesitated to criticize them. After all they did massacre intellectuals - so it was a bit personal. - --- Marina > > Jim Bell > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGzBAEBCAAdFiEEo8txa89xQ0v6g7ID+f9jkVc9tEIFAlpOaiAACgkQ+f9jkVc9 tEKIMAwAsVseDmI8vrTaUMWZsD2o14rvnlxO98b05/nHFNywSHVOIxe1p8+GtcOK uTyiv67lnaZX6Z8cTy6JOb6XBy0LLRxUxNFN2UJIAZ/ATwDvetln1OwEIRHA3Um1 UWTVPax2+TfaMIfm3Ct4ypVTjfTxWQ5Yl2T4dwLY6bW7gcX1nxBWQpafYD/9MdYG KCP/WfWsqvECQ4dR8MDVMnrU86Td41jc0HgEQtMA//VYs13iOT3vPic664bZHHeI fCk/mFnJq1tjtpWpZ2MrVSbfkN/6t1ekw7oQteEL93OjAVJrqgp5GUchT4yVXW/Y 3P2bCk0f2J7YTD++c7Y9pPlQWfJ4yhVDQkqykhEdaTXpiWJk4MbbBQ0E8bm/7+6c WZ7VWZ+wvhy/6GqSm48Gt3O/KWLr6zFUORsTwQzvl7rWDbPwXzuHoi6iytxC9iHC dc0ZyQE43WRb4Saj7+p69JJhb4pbbPZmz2kn/fv97JTe/mVTQP2dyd2HbCoO7acP K/3iOX7O =KlPq -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
