Thanks for the replies.. but most of them seem to have an "ignorant" 
objective...

Where are the type of projects taht would be working for medical research.. 
looking for cures...

I really don't care if there are aliens out there.. we have enuff aliens from 
the middle east in our country now, terrorizing the hell out of us.

Anyway, before "I get on a soap box" about the middle east I'm of to work.

I feel quite safe in saying that I am not the only list member who finds 
comments that make light of what happened to be totally unacceptable, in poor 
taste and most likely indicative of someone who themselves feels little or no

I would suggest that if you feel the need to offer quips and make comments of
