What? Speaka da English! Is a 'fidel' the opposite of an 'infidel'? If so, I like it. We will no longer call them Muslims, we will call them 'fidels!' Yes, I started using that several posts ago. Had some second thoughts about getting mixed up with some Cuban bashing thread - or misunderstood by some if we have ex Cuban or FL posters (John) on board but evetually decided "fidels" works well for now. Also guessed it would take some time before Ted finds out whom I am bashing this time :) Sure, with your solution we would leave the bad guys to blow up their own and not bother with that. Right now we are leaving the dirt rich few of their own to suck in the oil incomes and don't bother with that. So In your opinion we should reverse our politics here, right? Make the distribution of their riches our business while leaving it up to the vermin down there to blow up the 99.9 promille (pro mille, .1%, 1000ppm) of their own- and a few Westerners living down there with them. This as a predictable result of Middel East democratic elections as suggested by you rather than an elusive effort of mine to read your mind. Wouldn't mind the ability to do that though, learning more about your dirt rich hag and multiple babe creative thinking. Sounds like a great idea to me. We will miss you, Elroy :-) Taro
