Signs you live in 2002 1. The gold price gets beaten down every time it rises. 2. Folks get "laffs" from GATA's pronouncements and discoveries, and they enjoy telling DAK to take it elsewhere (including up where the sun doesn't shine?) 3. The importance to the Pentagon for the capture or killing of OBL and other Al-Qaeda leaders has been downplayed. 4. "Aqua regia" or "Aqua regina", which is the only? solvent that can "dissolve" gold and which is normally a 1:(3 or 4) mixture of concentrated nitric acid, HNO3(aq), and concentrated hydrochloric acid, HCl(aq), may be simply obtained by boiling an aqueous solution of nitre, KNO3, common salt, NaCl, and a ferric aluminium sulfate salt, a natural alum, presumably, Fe2(SO4)3.Al2(SO4)3.18H20. 5. It takes longer to fly to some American cities than to go there by car. 6. You need to have several pieces of photo IDs with you if you wish to enter the US by air. 7. Every commercial on television has a web site address at the bottom of the screen. 8. You buy a computer and 6-months later it is out of date and now sells for half the price you paid for it. 9. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20-50 years of your life, is cause for panic and turning around to go get it. 10. Using real money, instead of credit or debit, to make a purchase would be a hassle and takes planning. 11. Cleaning up the dining room means getting the fast food bags out of the back seat of your car. 12. Your reason for not staying in touch with family is that they do not have e-mail addresses. 13. You consider second-day air delivery painfully slow. 14. Your dining room table is now your flat filing cabinet.

<<Camp x-ray is a blight on America's reputation>> Huh? What are you talking about? Have you read the EYEWITNESS accounts (as opposed to the earlier hearsay-speculo-hyperventilation?) which show that the detainees are treated better than the military that have to guard them? Are you talking about the treatment, or the fact of detention, as a blight on America's reputation? John

Imagine that, beauty queens mouthing platitudes. What is the world coming too? So now they have them say, "We just have to fight those terrorists Don. People have to get together and stand shoulder to shoulder on this. We can't let them blow up any more buildings." Don: "And how can we do this, Tabitha?" BQ: "Well, Don I don't know, but when I was a Girl Guide we went on cookie drives, and that can do a lot. Maybe we can raise money and give it to the people who can make a difference." Me: Indeed, BQ, we could do that. After all, who is going to tell us enough to fight terrorists ourselves? But the big cookie drive has already been done on your wallet, and I think the people who should know how to fight terrorism are already doing all the wrong things to ensure they have enough terrorists to fight in the next election. Personally I am for world peace. And if all those other guys don't agree with me, I am just going to have to nuke the lousy, bearded, undemocratic, christ slammin', jaywalkin' no-good niks. EC<:-}
