Thanks V.

There is more truth than fiction in the Onion report .. Our western
society has become very ARROGANT because "we" believe everything can
be solved by hi-tech.. This IGNORANCE of the LIMITATIONS of the
technology brings us to the these tragic situations which appears now
to culminate with the "Dresden Style" leveling of Belgrade..

This NATO bombing reminds of Henry the K's XMAS bombing of Cambodia
that was peaceful in the Vietnam war up until that time..
It OPENED the door to Pol Pot and the "killing fields".. It either
creates a vacuum like Cambodia where a despot steps in or it pulls
the scab off a wound that is healing so the Victim bleeds to death..

I'm not certain that high technology can solve a damn thing when it comes to the human condition.. But it appears to be an EASY WAY out
for people with LAZY MINDS and bodies..

Best wishes... the Coug
