Hi Keith. Your assumption is not quite right, although your comments remain insightful. I am French-Canadian ("canadien"), member of a colonized people. Pierre --- In biofuel@yahoogroups.com, Keith Addison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello Pierre, and all > > This is all quite correct, but

Hello Pierre, and all This is all quite correct, but you and Balaji are looking at it from different viewpoints, you from that of the society that did the colonising, which should indeed be working on such self-examination, and he from that of a society that was colonised, which now has to ge

Luc, Strong words and BS. It is a proven effect of antibiotics, that the average life of humans nearly doubled. I am myself a survivor, only thanks to the new ulcer medicines. Ulcer have in the past been a substantial killer, even if it is not so much talked about it. You can promote and blame
