Well, not everyone who participates is American and while I can make or break the rules as I see fit,  <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />  it benefits all of uson this forum more if I try to comply with my own rules not to post a politically charged message, from their ideological POV.  I could also argue, with some merit, that I didn't break my rules, but again, the end result would likely be counterproductive.  In any case, the article/page is still there, it hasn't gone anywhere.  Any reference you might email should point directly to the page at:
