Sheesh! Calm down, folks! Let me point out a couple of things:
1. I had NO INTENTION of stirring up ANYTHING by my posting. I hardly even read the original "Revolution" thread - it just reminded me of the quotes I had recently seen, which I posted. I was just sharing something I thought might give our European/Canadian/whoever-non-US friends a little more perspective on the current American president. Forgive me for not knowing you could give a sh*t less about the American scene!
I, for one (and apparently there are only a couple of us one on this Forum), am curious by nature and welcome off-topic postings by non-US citizens on the subjects of interest only to them. It teaches me a little bit more about this world we live in. Euro-dollars don't affect me in the slightest, but don't I recall Bob-CH discussing them, however briefly? Did I get mad and "flame" him for that? Nope - it was enlightening.
2. It takes more than two or three postings to be a "takeover" of the forum.
3. To echo INTRUDN, read the subject line. If you don't like the subject line, don't read the message. That's what I do anyway!!!
Any and all flames are welcome. Just please direct them to my personal addy at mamalisa@catlover.com. No need to waste Bert's server space with more B.S.
