Charles,

>Walter, you really should stick to technical areas where you have some expertise and credibility. I am not defending a nationalist or jingoistic position but this is just silly.

You should know better than this. I'll never let me tell me what to do: Freedom of speech. You might agree or not agree. The point is I might have a standpoint that makes sense from an european perspective that is totally foreign to most US citizens. You can ignore the point, that is your choice, but don't tell me what I should think or do. It will harden my standpoint even more.

Walter,
