Thanks, but we better keep politics off the list. I can tell you that, 
by coincidence, I'll be in Greenland the next couple of weeks. If anyone 
wants to listen then I'll “forward” your message to the locals.


This also means that I don't really know when this message will be sent 
(I'm in the air now and I don't really know when I'll be online again).

Andrew, thank you for thinking of this.

Yes, we are painfully aware of how boorish our president is (at best),

That would be the "royal we", right?!

I hope we’ll be able to return to politeness, civility, and 
statesmanship very soon.


Sure, as soon as BOTH sides quit appealing to the sound-bite audience, 
and the general population on BOTH sides starts thinking for themselves 
and actually holds their elected "representatives" responsible for their 
words and actions.


Now, can we get back on-topic?  Politics has NO business here.


PS - If you have to apologize for being off-topic up front, DON'T POST - 
it's off-topic!  Find a more suitable outlet, of which there are plenty 
on the friction' Internet!

I’ll second that. Not just about Greenland though — darned near everything.
