While you're on the subject of terrorism, I'm pleased to 
see that Irish Americans, having had a taste of it up close, 
have decided to stop funding the IRA, and so a long episode of 
terrorism across the water has a good chance of being brought 
to a close.

Among the lowest, per capita, in the developed world.
Excluding, of course, military hardware.

Seems to me that you are the one calling names and<br>

<br>
You may want to pick up on one of those courses that<br>
you so kindly recommended to Bob, I would suggest<br>
"English as a Second Language".  The proper insult<br>
would have been "blue collar American".  Please note<br>
America and American gets a capital "A" not a small<br>
"a" just like the first letter of the name of every<br>
country, even yours.<br>
<br>
You might wish to convey your self-righteous<br>
judgmental attitude and thoughts to one of our groups<br>
of "blue collar Americans" AKA our Firemen and<br>
Policemen who gave their lives responding to the<br>
9/11/01 terrorist attack.  Just because you, in your<br>
country, wherever that might be, may have a class or<br>
cast system, of which you seem to feel you are at the<br>
top of the ladder, please note we do not here.<br>
<br>
I hope you were able to tune in to the benefit concert<br>
in NYC about a week ago.  If not I'll pass on the<br>
highlight of the evening, a quote directed to Bin<br>
Laden which I now direct to you.  "In the fine<br>
tradition of Irishmen everywhere, I say to you, YOU<br>
CAN KISS MY ROYAL IRISH (AMERICAN) ASS!" Approximate<br>
quote by a NYC blue collar worker (AKA Fireman) who<br>
lost his brother, another NYC Blue Collar Worker (AKA<br>

<blockquote type=cite cite>Aldo a wreck is called a wreck because it is a

In our country when we have two cars that wreck we<br>
haul them off to a junk yard and sell the scrap. <br>
Since we have a rich cultural heritage we do not feel<br>
it necessary to try to make some sort of cultural<br>
significance out of each car wreck we have.  The same<br>
thing would happen to ship wrecks if they were 1) not<br>
hidden from sight and 2) easier to salvage.  So get<br>
off the cultural heritage crap.  What I and most<br>
divers I know dive has no cultural significance. <br>
<br>
I really love it when UNESCO has a bunch of reps from<br>
