    Chris Losinger wrote: well, we could go after the places we know support terrorism, instead of dicking around with unnecessary invasions of countries that we know aren't supporting terrorism. GWB's been screwing around for over a year and Saudi Arabia is still happily send money to OBL's gang. GWB's priorities are misplaced. On that we agree completely. Although I would be amazed if Hussein were not up to his elbows in the support of terrorism, the Saudi's are clearly the cornerstone of support for Islamic terrorism. The faster we go for the juggler the sooner this crap will be over. Still, I find it hard to blame Bush on this score. If he were to even hint that Saudi Arabia was in our sights it would send our allies packing and the international economy into a tail spin.

    I believe it states off topic rants. So if you want to rant about a programming question I do not see any issue. Now politely asking is another story.;P "I will find a new sig someday."
