Mark,

There are kids being kidnapped to be Jockies in the USA today? Where? Aqueduct?

Sorry couldn't resist poking fun at your wording :) And I won't make fun of you for reading the USA Today as I already knew you were in sales.

I agree that humanity has made much progress and has become more enlightened. I am very optimistic about the future. I was just responding to the statement that slavery no longer exists. Also I hope you are correct that 99% of the world considers it an evil act. Unfortunately I suspect the number is lower. Remember no one calls it slavery anymore. So they can condemn slavery elsewhere while defending some unique cultural condition of their own.

Henry
