Guess I'll not be taking no lessons in history from the likes of you, Ian. Hitler invaded Poland, not Belgium, after Chamberlain waved his piece of worthless paper and declared, "Peace in our time." Then we came over and saved Europe, not only from the Nazis but later from the Commies. A little gratitude would be nice, but we're not holding our breath, any more than we expect to receive any gratitude from others we've helped both here and abroad during our nation's history. ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ moq_discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
