I have a MacBook Pro. I will download Chrome tomorrow just for fun as Safari
is the only browser I'm using; horrors, I know. I did also attempt to
download Thunderbird, but for some reason the password wouldn't take and I gave
up. My main issue at this point is that on the website, when I click on a
message, it often says loading.. and on it goes until I lose
patience. It's hit and miss. For now, I'm using email.

Oh, thanks for telling me. Sorry about that! Glad you appreciated the piece.
The guy has a real knack for incorporating a lot of complicated info into
something that's easily readable. And I was pleased to see that he said pretty
much the same things I had told Bhairitu. ;-)
BTW, turns out one doesn't need to respond in the Rich Text editor to style
text with bold and italic--at least with a Windows machine using Chrome. The
standard Word key combos do the trick: Ctrl-B and Ctrl-I. Probably Ctrl-U
too--yup. I don't think that was the case with the old interface, so that's one
small plus for Neo.

Thanks Judy. First link has two http's, but works just fine if one takes on
out. It's definitely reader-friendly and I love maps.

Violent regime change in Syria would be a huge freaking deal requiring troops
on the ground, a full-scale military conflict. That's not what the
administration is after. They just want Assad to stop using chemical weapons.
Here's the administration's basis for claiming that it was the Syrian
government that launched the chemical attacks, not the rebels:

Very different from the purported evidence of Iraqi soldiers killing Kuwaiti
babies in incubators, if you recall how that went. Doesn't mean it's all true,
just that the baby-killing stories aren't a good comparison.
