****ed off at the rest of the world for your ills, and you even want
others to help you out. Sad.


Uh, pardon me for intruding, but once in awhile I have to take exception to
this kind of remark.

All of us are getting older, and all of us will have to deal with medical
situations at some point. Michael didn't make a complaint about his
problem, someone (who cared) asked how he's doing and he responded.

As for asking others to help out, let me ask everyone here -- what have you
done recently to help a soldier or veteran? Anything? What have our
veterans done to help you? This newsgroup isn't large enough for me to
begin describing it. Think about what our servicemen have done and are
continuing to do, in spite of politicians' rhetoric. Think about what would
happen if all of our servicemen, everywhere around the world, were to LISTEN
to the politicians and simply drop their posts and come home. I can
guarantee the USA would be terrorism central. Now think about what the
POLITICIAN gets as a retirement package -- let's just say his health care
happens to be a tad better.

Picture in your mind, one single veteran you know who has served to keep us
secure. Give him the keys to your house, all your cars, all your
posessions, and spend the rest of your time working as his butler. It's
still not enough to repay in my opinion. Yet, all most veterans ask is that
you simply remember, and enjoy life.

I'm sure this message will bring out the trolls in force, making snide
comments that will go on for another eternity. Sad, isn't it? Still, I've
made my position known and I don't apologize for it.


Gary, I apologize for cross posting this to two binaries newsgroups.
I should have made two separate posts. The 'person' you replied to is
the biggest foul mouthed idiot that pollutes the electronics
newsgroups. He morphs like Skippy, and is abut as useful. He is never
man enough to admit he's wrong, and thinks that cursing makes him sound
like a man. Eeyore, on the other hand is a very ignorant and childish
british subject that hates America and has suggested that that it needs
to be bombed out of existence. Kill file both, if they keep replying,
you won't miss anything.
