One you'd be doing this for CCnut: My experiment wanted music for iPOD. I didn't know how to download. Bigger kids in the school van told her to download eMule a software that downloads music. I needed to set it up and test it. Just did it: Now I 'm listen to Diana Ross and The Supremes, "Keep me Hanging on" Patty Austin and James Ingram "Baby come to me". Ringo Starr "It don't come easy". I'm going to buy an iPOD for me too!!!

No problem.. It's just my opinion, based upon observations. And I gave you the "condensed" version, as best I could. But I think the logic about Ahmadinejad is pretty sound. This guy is one scary fellow, no matter what Mike Wallace might have been deluded into believing. The fortunate thing is that the Iranian population is not entirely supportive of his policies and/or beliefs. Many of them are quite westernized, and the majority are very young (under 25) and interests other than waging Jihad or trying to bring about the return of the Mahdi. But as we have often seen in such regimes, it only takes a relative minority of very aggressive and oppressive "thugs" to cow a population into submission. But when such activities bring even more economic hardship, and the people are forced to suffer from his obvious aggression and nuclear aspirations as a result of international condemnation and sanctions, it will eventually undermine his grip upon power. At the very least, it will force Ahmadinejad to focus upon preserving his internal power and take his eye off of exporting his Jihad to other parts of the region. I hate the fact that international sanctions will hurt the Iranian people (who have very little grudge with). But only an combined international effort to tell them that Ahmadinejad is the cause of this international condemnation will motivate them to undermine his grip on power. Hawk
