you will learn to challenge assertions yourself before accepting them.

Thanks, and you are right.

Quite a few emails pass by and I generally check the veracity before forwarding the few good ones. More than a few have gone back with references to urban legends. Several returned ones have been critical of Kerry lately.

I had checked this story out and was satisfied. As you can see from the link in my previous post (if you choose to believe me) that there were multiple sites that supported the assertion. I became a victim of the same personal shortcoming that other posters are sometimes prey to. We check the sources that tend to have similar views as ourselves. It appears to be problem in humans in areas beyond politics.

Each of us is responsible for our own actions.

Thanks for putting up with me.
