Thanks Gary Kirkham The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.

You could always sneak in a firearm and fire a round in the air from your window during such an exercise to aid in the fun. Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS.

Yeah I saw that the other day. I have no problems with it except for one thing: it means that food is stolen from someone who needs it. Small children don't and can't enjoy cheese... Some of my friends thought it was disgusting! Then I reminded them that breast milk was their favorite dish once. :) -- Kein Mitleid Für Die Mehrheit

Makes one feel very small, doesnt it? Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for...

You seem to think I have a problem with it. I find it encouraging that, even though the economy is in the tank and people are worried about the future, there is someone around who identifies with our plight by showing us that not everyone is suffering. I am happy for him.

There are quacks in any field of medcine, and you are right, any alternative medcine will atrract them of course. However, I can categorically state that my back is a llot better for treatment by a particular Osteopath I used in Leuven, or by treatment by my brother in law who is a chiropractor. Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription

I spent my high school years in Grand Rapids then moved away to college and didn't go back for many years until recently. I really can't think of a lot to do there now. The area has changed a lot and is very depressed with the auto industry problems. There is the Gerald Ford Presidental Museum, a small zoo - John Ball Park, I believe - but that may be closed in the winter. There's Meijer Gardens on the east side of town. It's a botanical garden under a dome - very interesting to me. They have some special shows. Last year they had clear-wing butterflies which I had never seen anywhere else before. The west side of Michigan gets a lot of lake-effect snow. The winds coming in off Lake Michigan can bring in lots of snow in a short time. 96 between Grand Rapids and Muskegon is a good road and it's not that far - 45 minutes or so.
