Yes i mean that, if i hadn't meant it i wouldn't have typed it in ... five days after the WTC we had here a 16 septiembre celebration, that is the mexicano día de independencia, anniversary of el Grito de Dolores ... in the community hall in which we held it, we bought for the occasion and flew the stars 'n stripes at a height equal to la bandera and the maple leaf, and we placed it between the two, you could say that was geographically oriented but we meant it as the place of honour du jour It is perhaps a measure of your world view that you do not understand this without being told .... much of the rest of your post here [yes i did remember it, just tended to compose my reply while driving and then never had the energy to type in all eight thousand words] indicates a lack of knowledge of your neighbour to the north ... not all US nationals share this, there was ten minutes ago on Rex Murphy [cbc radio programme] an upper NY state resident who understood clearly the strong desire of canadians to remain free, yet who did not see this as a threat to the US in any way, rather the opposite actually .... which it is .... so, excuse me, but - 'inspire the enmity' - wtf? ...
