I was addressing the comment that YOU, a Mandrakesoft employee, made regrading said events. True, I knew nothing of your history so of that then yes I, by definition am ignorant. But being apprised of said history it make your comment " that recent airplane flights which missed their intended destinations and bumped in WTC and pentagon" even more macabre. You made this comment, not I or someother who wished to provoke this discussion. If what I said, to you showed sickening ignorance, what, with your history, do your words show of you. Your point as to the purpose of this list and the actions you would take starting tomorrow were complete unto themself. They did not require the preface which I found objectionable. Do me one favor. Read your post again. Not as you wrote it, but as someone such as I who has been deeply affected by the events would read it. If you find nothing with which someone might take umbrage so be it. Nothing more need be said. Charles A Edwards Forever never goes beyond tomorrow. And for too many there are now no tommorows.
