Hey Rodg.....some facts first......I AM CANADIAN!!!!!, not Russian......I am long on NOT, I am NOT, nor could ever be a basher, I do not play the points game.....I ask only honest questions. I could go on but I'm sure you get my point. Now lets deal with your paranoia....my avatar reminds you of a Rusky robot.....he is Gort, from 1951 movie 'The Day the Earth Stood Still'....he was sent to help save the earth from humans destroying it with nuclear weapons! Sound familiar Texas man. NOTE: Canada has no nuclear weapons. You seem to believe I, and my crew, drove your points down after a disagreement.....wow!...."my crew" , that's real paranoia for you. No Rodg, I have no 'crew'. I suggest you ask HerbWeibe if I gave him stars after our prolonged and off-topic theological discussions. We disagreed and still had a good discussion, and came out of it being supportive not destructive(like you)....that is a real sense of 'community'.

Finally you say of yourself..."I speak my mind like a free man - not like a mercenary, or manipulator, or someone cowed by superiors(like our new Russian poster)....etc..." WOW!!!!! I guess being a Canadian and working alone on my stock portfolio for my son and I to have a better life, and having great theological and philisophical discussions with strangers from all over the world, and giving stars for good community behaviour.....and here's the kicker Rodg......try to GET this part OK.....having the politeness and maturity to relate to your fellow man in a way that brings respect. .......regards.... sambone
