#3 It's from the heart, smn. The most warlike thing I've ever done is to offer my mite here, in the hope that those cleverer than I will find it useful. My parents did their bit during WWII and (Daddy) Israel's war of independence, and I suspect at least one of the trailing daughters will do her bit for the war on terror. But words are about all I have to offer, except for the occasional care package. And tea, of course, for those who'd like it. ;-)
