I withdraw what I said. It was uncalled for. Accept my appologies.

ElM also expresses sneering contempt for murdered Peter Blake, shot in the back inside his boat, in Brazil, on the Amazon, by armed pirates who raided them. He seems to think Peter Blake deserved it... good job.... Presumably Peter Blake is an excessively Anglo name and he shouldn't have been in Brazil, legally, doing nobody harm.

But that's just ElM. TJ advocates shooting fleeing Tibetans in the back too. Presumably he would do it himself if armed and present. But maybe they are both just big thoughtless talk and are more human than they appear, though drinking champagne with gold flakes in it seems in keeping with such ideology. "Let them eat cake" philosophy.

In fairness, I take our 2 year old grand daughter riding on my bicycle [she sits on the bar on a towel over polystyrene for padding] and we decorate the old headlight with flowers to make it pretty. I drilled some holes in the light so the stalks could poke through. Gold flakes are just "pretty" in another form so I'm really just being snobby about barbarian people being "pretty" with gold in their plonk.
