I agree with this comment which is actually a comment on life in the US than life on the LUG. Or life on the LUG is a microcosm of the US. As far as Don's comments, I defend his right to say these things. And I have spent personal time with Don (Leica Cape Cod workshop for 3 days) and Don is no racist. He is one of the nicest, gentlest, thoughtful guys I know. Let's face it the World is a very nasty place, and, I find nothing wrong with having a long memory about things that been done to hurt you, or your family, or country. Just MHO. sl - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
