Re <japanese> I remember reading Harry Truman called them "the infernal Japanee." From my limited knowledge in these matters, the Japanese are/were one of the most racist peoples on earth. jhg

Paul, perhaps you are right, and we don't want to make a mountain out of a molehill, but I remember the term Jap heavily used during WW II as a derogatory term against the Japanese people, including the many loyal Americans of Japanese descent who were interned. If these little "informal" references to ethnic groups begin to creep in without challenge, it could lower the quality of this thread..This is a fine thread with highly intelligent people...There--I have had my say, and that is the end of it from this soul...Happy trading!!
