Terry, firstly I'm from Holland, not an Afrikaner. Secondly SA's people come from many different backgrounds including a small percentage who are Afrikaner and hence who are the group who could possibly care about what happened back in 1899. I doubt that many people alive today in SA could give a rat's keester what happened all those years ago, Afrikaner or otherwise. And those that do cling to that incident need to get a life.
