Thank you for your kind words. Although I must admit My first reaction was
"BOMB THOSE F&%$S!!!" (said f&%$s not having even been identified yet), we
need calm and understanding to prevail. Perhaps there is a way to bring the
perpetrators to justice without having to resort to further slaughter of
innocents. Of course, the mood surrounding us here in the States doesn't
exactly "jibe" with that. I work as a supervisor in a directory assistance
call center near Seattle, and today my mood, the mood of the operators, and
many of the customers was edgy at best. A few drunks called wanting to talk
to "The Arab Embassy, NOW!!" (Note: there is no such thing in the US.
They're called consulates here, and in any case, there isn't one
representing all Arabs. Ahh, the wonders of booze...)
Anyway, thanks again for your concern. Take good care of yourself. We'll
try to do the same here.
