Nadya,

>I guess, the fact, that English is not your native language, excuses some of the really strange phrases in your message.

As a Brazilian citizen attending an english speaking forum, I've learned not to get to lonely "words" or "sentences" meanings, but rather to the "spirit" of the message someone is trying to transmit.

I think Claudio tried to express how the Brazilian people got shocked with the recent happenings in the US, and he is praising the beautifulness of a place like UT were people from many countries can share friendship ("Hey folks lets celebrate this !"). He's not blaming anybody, in Brazil all comunities live in great friendship, thanks God! Think, also, he is demonstrating his, as all Brazilian people, solidarity with our brothers of USA, thus demonstrating our complete disagreement with any act of force against anybody in the world. We in Brazil are a very respectfull and peacefull people.

The "words" problem made me adopt the signature I use (see below, please)

Regards,

Fernando
