Have to jump in here, Robert. It will not matter whether the Republicans or Democrats have power. With the extreme power of the courts in the this country now, irrespective of the election crap, has made everyone less accountable and less responsible for their actions. And both sides are guilty of this to one extent or another. This election has denigrated into class warfare, which is pathetic. And in this system, responsible people have to carry irresponsible people. Term it stupid people, scum, or whatever. There is a distinct reason why Europe is rapidly going down the toilet. If class warfare and entitlements become the lightning rod for the polarization of this country, as it appears this election and the process is doing, we will be joining Europe in the toilet very soon, which reponsible people will fight against tooth and nail. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness gives nobody the right to pull others down with their choices. Keep that in mind.

No as a pramatic person who beliefs in the inherent goodness of people I strive to work with and educate all as best I can. I work with young people and try to with my photo technology introduce them to activities that just by participation teach how things work. watman.com For Example at several Gams. watman.com At the above Sea Witch Gam I took 619 photos thru one day and at the evening social that day I used watman.com my portable system to display all the photos I'd taken. On my main web page you wild find hundred of pages to links of photos that are their for any to enjoy and be exposed in a friendly way to technology and fun. I help celebrate the good. This is a celebration of people who have been committed to one another for 20 30 40 years. watman.com An one guy I took pictures of is a complete dork who screwed over my son twice in youth athletics. But his wife is a wonderful person and I say nothing. My son has a better understanding of what cheating and stupidity are. A sad but good lesson of life learned. Many of these people may vote Gore. I still treat them with respect. It's not a big deal if someone thinks that the way I think is stupid.... WE JUST DISAGREE. But I can fix anything electrical, mechanical, computer whatever. Very few even in Engineering have created this trade.home.dhs.org Tom Watson tosiwmee
