TobagoJack, Re: "The Seeker" I surely intended no disrespect to The Seeker in asking the question as I am just curious. There are many places in the world where being imprisoned for political reasons is very common and is surely no shame. China back in the 1950's was doubtless one of those places and some would say it still is.

Maybe Seeker had a similar experience to Sidney Rittenberg, who was in the same circumstances in those days and was also probably the only American in China at the time. I say probably because it is likely that some American spies and maybe an American missionary or two were being held in Chinese torture chambers at the time, though their existence has later been denied.

TJ, Sorry, changing topics here.

I see that parrot in the UK is H5N1, the new code word for "Mom, can we have hamburgers again?". (Yes, parrot sautee will be taken off the menu in all the fusion restaurants in London now). Because a little mad cow is much easier to deal with than a tombstone dedicated to Spanish Flu.

TSN Puts still cheap. I like them more than PPC, SFD.
