Funny, depending on the discussion group, they don't want the emails 
trimmed. Some also demand posting at the bottom.


My comments were not meant as a personal attack or a proposal for 
writing a legal brief (I apologize if that seems scarcastic or as a shot 
or flame ).

I'm amazed at the willingness of some citizens of the US to continually 
bash our country, culture, history, etc. and admire our critics internal

That's not aimed at anyone in particular, just an observation.

Goodwill to everyone in the OSS community.
