Thank you for the post, and the advise about where to look for more pertinent information on the Vietnam War. I still wonder what the old man was talking about in his letter regarding the French, America and Vietnam? Perhaps he is confused? Seems the French gave us some good words of advise on this occasion....and now they are doing it again. We will have to disagree on that.... France has nothing but their own best interest in mind. I understand that, but they are not the ones who lost 3000 people to a horrific act of murder on their home soil. They shouldn't and won't stop America from doing what it takes to protect it's citizens. America cannot be responsible for the policies of the French. M

Way OT apparently: Only One Rule In Heaven Three guys die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven...don't step on the ducks." So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first guy accidentally steps on one. Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest woman he ever saw. St. Peter chains them together and says "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly woman!" The next day, the second guy steps accidentally on a duck, and along comes St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing, and with him is another extremely ugly woman. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first guy. The third guy has observed all this and not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly woman, is very, VERY careful where he steps. He manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St.Peter comes up to him with the most gorgeous woman he has ever laid eyes on...a very tall, tan, curvaceous, sexy blonde. St. Peter chains them together without saying a word. The guy remarks, "I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?" She says, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck.
