OFF TOPIC Hi! I'm back early.
Dixie,
I wanted to reply to your statement that Canadians are a great people.
ABSOLUTELY!!!! They are some of the very best!!! And, I, for one, am extremely grateful that they are our friends. I would only hope, and yes, I do believe, that if a Canadian needed help in a distant land that we would come to their aid as quickly as they have come to ours. I'm thinking here of how they have helped to hide some of our nationals in the Middle East when to be discovered would have meant trouble.
I was gratified to see that most of the Canadians on board here (Solon, bbruin, etc) knew that neither you nor I were bashing Canadians when we brought up the question as to nationality.
Heck, there was a guy named Lucky over on the INFE thread who was a self-professed shorter from Canada. He was great! I had to admire that guy, both for his demeanor and his professionalism, not to mention his market savvy.
But I don't care for methods which have their own agenda to the detriment of others. The methods that Mr. F, Janice, and jhild use are detrimental to all of us....no matter what our nationality. I think that most of us believe that they are here with their own agenda. I, for one, can not conceive of their agenda being anything other than financial.
