Now to your point: I don't mind discussing things at all, in fact it is the reason I read the net. You can say anything you like and whether I feel it is right or wrong shouldn't sway your opinion unless any evidence I present convinces you. About my ignorance on the bombing during WWII? I still feel that you have neglected to read the articles that were posted after your article came over the net. If you had read them (and mine, for that matter) you might understand that several of us believe the bombing of the two Japanese cities *saved lives* because it ended the war before our planned invasion of Japan. Obviously they killed many people but what would have happened to other Japanese cities if the war had gone on longer? More Germans died due to conventional bombing in Europe than died in the two A-bombs. Try to listen to other people views Amir. Just because they dis- agree with you doesn't mean they are stupid (even if you think they are wrong) or ignorant. BTW, ignorant seems to be your favorite word, and has been used in every flame that you have posted. Sorry about your mail not reaching me, our lines are set to filter the garbage :^) ( I just couldn't resist that one folks ) Try it again and maybe it will get through. Tom Hill
