Ratios have nothing to do with this, SWE. I'm not defending Israel for what
they've done. But you seem to be defending Palestine as if they weren't
doing anything wrong. Here's the facts: Both sides are wrong in some form
or another. It doesn't matter how many on each side were killed, it still
remains that both sides are wrong.

Yeah. That's about right. And as far as the money issue goes, he is

It's all bad, as far as I can tell. Doesn't matter how many people died.
September 11 is different because its the first time terrorists have
actually succeeded and killing over 4000 American citizens at once. It is
also different because they didn't die from natural causes. Their lives
were taken by others. Does that make it somehow more special than any other
problems? No, but it IS the six month anniversary, and for those who want
to remember America's fallen, they should be allowed to do so.

I was making a statement of fact, not conjecture. It doesn't need to be
backed up and propoganda has nothing to do with it.
America's foray into Somalia was not received well by the local populace.
I said this in response because your post pretty much said that you wanted
America to come help you out. If you feel that strongly, write to the
American Ambassador to Libya, if there even is one. Is there one? I'm not
sure. :(

It really depends on if who is in the military goes along with their
commanding officers. Our military is entirely volunteer. And then there's
that freedom to bear arms thing in the constitution. I think you'd be

Don't believe everything you hear either about me or AW,

CEO

Well, it is a relief to hear that, and I sure hope he's letting the =

I think I'll give him a call one of these days to clarify why I =

Tell me what you guys think....

The Committee has decided to wait a year to hold the Olympics due to lack of
citizen interest. The first Olympic ceremony will be held in 2003. This
decision was not made because of any actions taken by AWC. We simply feel
that the interest is just not there this year to have such a large event as
this.
For those who were interested in this community-building and fun idea, we
thank you for giving us a chance. Just remember, we _will_ be there next
year. :)

Thanks for the warning, Carl, but have you verified this?
If so, you should contact Active Worlds, as they have his/her credit card
information and can contact the proper authorities.

Better double check with andras, first, Wings0nite. He is thought to have
confirmed this, since he is a co-owner of Storage world, one of the worlds
that was supposedly cracked.
