Go figure?
Hi Doug, Having lived on both sides of "the pond" I can assure you that this is far from true. Most Europeans respect and admire America and Americans. Albert's problem is that he can't seem to grasp that, while strong opinions are tolerated on the forum, personal attack is not. I'll miss Albert, although I seldom agree with him, his posts are always interesting and thought provoking. Regards, Norm
