Hi Bill,

Re "Euro" - I don't mind the word at all. Just that it is a bit like saying "Dollar" instead of "American". I know there is the tendency in America to shorten names (Gustave becomes "Gus", Sebastian is "Seb", etc) so "Euro" for "European" is not surprising at all.

"Euro" point of view is one that will piss off our right wing posters

So it is basically what I have said. It is the understanding that I do not agree with them that incites what you call "incoherent rage" in some posters around here. Not much to do about that, I am afraid.

Debka reports are that Saddam is having a "Walled Suburb" built for himself in Libya.

Gotta love Debka <g>
