Hi Holysandal, I have to say, I laughed my ass off from that funy response you gave in the column of "HeadInTheSand" I do not know why it seems so damned hard to make the guy understand but I must say that I gave up after trying to make him see how ridiculous his ramble was. Anyway, I will pass by here more often to read more of your essays. Thanks once more and lets hope for the best come Tuesday, for the rest of the world and not only America is what is at stake here. I know, cause I am a Swede and we too have a lot in common with you Americans.

Best Regards..LR!
