Freedom's just an other word for nothin' left to lose Kris Kristofferson just having musical buzzwords in the archives is a beacon to extremists. Sorry, couldn't resist the opportunity for a little levity. FWIW, I'm not the oldest person here, but neither am I the youngest. The current events that have bled over into this list are potentially the most significant world events in my lifetime. Emotions run high when we lose 3,000 lives in under an hour, and as we grapple with the best path to avoid such horrors in the future it's understandable that we may sometimes forget to employ the polite compartmentalization that allows us to get through the day to day. Every list I'm on is affected by this momentous decision of whether to alter the course of history by introducing the principle of preemption. Our very lives may be at stake, and certainly the economic climate in which we produce software. While I agree that this list is best served by sticking to its charter, I would not advocate exacerbating the emotions through debate or derision in this venue. People use signature lines for all manner of purposes, and arguably my purely commercial use is among the most crass (though perhaps less so than the 40-line legal disclaimers some corporate email servers tack on to outgoing messages g). If you don't agree with a sigline, or don't like WebMerge, the most meaningful dialog can be had with a private email to the author. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Media Corporation Developer of WebMerge 2.2: Publish any database on any site ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.FourthWorld.com Tel: 323-225-3717 AIM: FourthWorldInc ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: Serendipity Library Update 20030123 [OT]
Hi All, Just a note to let you know I'm not reading my mail for several hours at least. I cannot afford to become obsessed with an issue over which I have so little influence; so I need to concentrate on programming until it's out of my head and I can revisit it fresh. I don't believe the issue, important as it is, has a place on this list; otherwise I would have posted more than a political sig. If Bob Troy had shared their opinions with me privately and Claus had changed the To: as he intended, this would amount to three lines of text under my signature one time. It is an invitation to anyone who agrees OR disagrees to comment PRIVATELY. I will respond thoughtfully politely to those who want to convince me I am wrong. I may or may not respond again on list, depending on what others have posted. Rob Cozens God bless the UK!

I'll just want say that i like your brave statement. Even more because we don't have the free speach some repliers in the runrev list was referring to. We all (should) know that the war is a fact to come. Its all about oil and power, nothing more. I'm curious if my Bundeskanzler (german cancelor) will hold his position or if he will help the US with AWACS or something. There will be war, it was decided and there is nothing we can do. It's sad but it's the reality. I'll email you directly because i'm not as brave as you are.

May I suggest that you keep your political views off this list. As a former Japanese Prisoner of War (WWII) who fought for the ideal that everyone could say his piece, would you mind explaining your use of the word malevolent (Dictionary -- having, showing or arising from ill will, hatred, spite). I hope that you are not indicating that the United States has these characteristics. I will be pleased to continue this off line. Bob
