Already what is written is filling me with dread. So many world problems and we insist on having wars on top of that. Saw your links and this one is a sharp sword. " If we are to go by Olmert’s recent words, we should brace ourselves for a long haul, as the invasion “could go on indefinitely.” " I like the 'cognitive dissonance" term listed on one of the messages. <BR/>Anyway, we had two fairly decent days when it became easier to breathe but now we are in steam bath mode again. Took my shower then went into the office in a sweat. At work I froze my extremeties (is there a spell check on this?) and now I am steaming again. In my opinion this was not a spur of the moment decision. I think it ties in with the Iraqui initiatives if I may say so and it may be a continuation of the master plan conceived after 9/11. When I was young I imagined the existence of the Internet but I never believed that humans would be killing each other with bombs in 2006.
