Listmates,
Paul said it very well and I support.
I was embarrassed at the attack on the writer, which verged on the
hysterical and made me wonder who had really been brain-washed.     As a
non-American, my thoughts and sympathies lie with the USA today, as it
mourns the tragedy of Sept 11
Let us stick to jazz and try to remain civil with each other.
Regards,
