>>By golly, Jonathan you got the Mississippi County correct.<<
You'd be surprised how much of my family roots, especially the Irish are down in Mississippi County. I think Jim raises a very good point about this dialogue being very important, and needing to be raised. I think the largest problem about racism is that people don't talk about it. You don't have to agree, but listening to points of view gives you a slightly different view in regards the information and area being discussed. It's out there and it won't go away until it's dealt with. Most importantly, I think Jim and I illustrated that it's possible to agree to disagree and yet still respect each other's positions. One of the first major steps in pulling everyone together. I think Jim is the exception to the rule as normal experiences go, and even more of a testament to his character that he hasn't been jaded as most be would by now. So Jim, let's keep looking through our glasses and maybe trade once inawhile and see if we and others can wake up this city in some fashion.
