  Yeah, I know it is serious.  The bit that freaked me out, was if you think
about it for a little over 100ms, you come to the stark realisation that what
they actually did, was not hit a child for what it had done, but for what it
_might_ have done.  The _really_ scary part is that the general population,
actually bought it.

Here we are, some 6 weeks after the event, and they still haven't found their
WMD's.  For goodness sakes ... Who the fuck are they kidding.  I was making lite
of a serious situation during the event by saying, " We'll find them, just give
us two weeks to build them ",and here we are after at least six weeks, and we
haven't built them yet.  I just hope that we've started at least.

Somewhat differnt to yourself, I can understand why LJH ( Little Jonnie Howard )
did what he did.  As a Nation that has no hope of ever defending itself, I don't
think we had much of a choice.  In John's shoes, I probably would have done the
same thing.

BTW, there was a Bank Robbery in Sydney last week.  The robbers didn't just hold
up the Bank, they actually "terrorised" the staff. 
Fair-bloody-dinkum ... How
dare they !!  Back in the good-old days, they just scared them, but now even the
Bank Robbers are using "terror" tactics.

Cheers, Brenton
