Unless you consider the word fool to be swearing..? Now that *is* an interesting development. It still doesn't make me a European though, so it rather spoils your argument. Ivor

I am insulted by being called one. You don't understand why, that's your problem not mine. For once in your life, do what someone else asks, without having to know why. I am getting tired of all this, I am sure you and everyone else is too. The only way it can end is for you to have a speck of decency about you and respect just once in your life, my wishes not to be called what insults me. Ivor |
