Hello FRANK.

20 Apr 06 10:45, you wrote to me:

 SA>>> why?

 SA>> Seems you have lost a lot of threads, FV may be correct.

 FS> I think the key weasel-word there is "may" ... heh heh heh ...

Yes, he just "may" be correct in his conclusion, you are loosing your intelect
old fellow.

 SA>> Remember your
 SA>> use of the accusation of "all Europeans are Cowards" this was in
 SA>> reference to their actions in WW2.

 FS> I'd have to see an "unedited" quote of that before I can respond.

I'm sure you have archives, you are supposed to have followed the thread for
over a year now, perhaps you are loosing the plot old fellow.

Why waste bandwidth with excesive quoting? Though nothing is 'deleted' in this
reply. Just for your dim witted mind, from now on, just to you, I will never
delete any line from messages.

 SA>> Also implied with this statement by
 SA>> yourself was your statement "I was there".

 FS> Huh?  There was no *implication* whatsoever as I *was* there in
 FS> WWII ...

Oh so the truth is now comeing to the fore, you meant to say "you were not
there in WW2" ?

 SA>> Now answer the question
 SA>> truthfully, why did you call these people cowards?

 FS> See above ... [sigh] ...

I see no reason there for why you called these people "Cowards" so answer the
question.

 FS>> obviously there are individual Europeans -- those who, for some
 FS>> reason, haven't emigrated to America -- who are not cowards.

 SA>> Why should they wish to emigrate to your country if you are an
 SA>> exaple of the sort of person they will find there?

 FS> If I *were*, Europeans would *all* be anxious to imigrate here
 FS> ...

You have an exalted oppinion of yourself, would this be the reason you wish to
glorify yourself with your deeds in the conflicts of the second world war?

 FS>> It's the nations as a whole who refuse to carry their fair burden
 FS>> in the modern "war" who demonstrate cowardice ...

 SA>> What modern war, or is it an illegal invasion?

 FS> Note the quotes around "war" above?  That is a technique we
 FS> people who are literate use to indicate a meaning other than the
 FS> usual for the word being quoted.

And as you so blithely fail to see, I have asked for a definition, with a
suggestion, of your meaning for the quotation "war". You have now answered
below, thankyou.

 FS>  For example, the US hasn't been
 FS> at war for more than one-half century ... not since September
 FS> 1945, more specifically ...

Ah, so Mr Scheidt now admits the US of A is engaged in Illegal and
dishonourable acts round the globe, not having been "at war since September
1945"


 FS>> ... Everything I need to know, I learned from my cat.

 SA>> And not a very bright one at that.

 FS> You don't understand taglines *either* do you?  ... heh heh heh

No, you fail to understand the Irony of your machines "random choice".
