Welcome to the Soup, Helen. I'm 30 years military and could not agree with you more. I believe in national defense but not in the assault of other nations. I don't believe in an energy hunt war. I do believe if we through all the freakin' laws out the window and just had the 10 we were given a few thousand years before Christ, that the world would be a better place. Looking forward to reading your work. Vince

this is one of my favorite sayings of ghandi...as I add,an eye for an eye,if that were true we would all be blind...which in a sad way,we are,blinded by ignorance and indifference....peace , jay
