Heather;

My most humble apologies........ I didn't know !

You said - "Oh, and by the way, John, we ARE fighting a war against terrorists. It just so happens that those terrorists are ALL MUSLIM." [emphasis added]

It's been so long since I even heard the terrorist name Osama bin Forgotten. I got sidetracked some how into thinking that the war was in Iraq, over oil. Now how could I have gotten so far off track ?

I somehow must have missed it when Timothy McVeigh converted to Islam. Oh well, you'll have to cut me some slack. I'm just a stupid, old man. I sure am glad to have clear thinking, young people like you, Heather, to catch all those details that I somehow miss, and pass them on to me.

Thank you Heather ! John
