Amen! This thread has taken me to places on the internet that I never dreamed existed. And to books I would not of known of, or read. The International flavor of our posters helps keep us honest. FI, I really enjoyed the exchange over "Bakeesh", and the comparison of it to "Tips." Don't agree, but it did open my eyes to that view. Nadine's Encyclopedic knowledge of Israel has been of enormous help to me. CB's research approach is very good. John's totally opposite political viewpoint on most FA has caused me to "Check My Premises" more than once. The rest of you, too many to mention, have kept me sharp.

For some reason, this thread has been Hyperactive today. I set down at about 12:30PM to read it. It is now 3:44PM and I have not reached the end. It is getting to be like counting Chinese passing me!
