LA has had enough of the rain. Reagan can testify to that I'm sure. For those of you who haven't been here, there are hills all over the LA basin and we build homes all over them. It's part of the LA mystique --- See the fiilm "Laurel Canyon" that one minute you're in the middle of a traffic jam and five minutes later and up one of the canyon roads, you're in quiet with deer and even mountain lions for neighbors. The problem comes when it rains as much as it has here and of course fire is another issue as well. BUT, it's part of life and so we accept it, but ENOUGH ALREADY with the rain !

I appreciate your apology .
I think it's hard sometimes to effectively gauge a persons inference via cyber thought.
The only thing I would add is that Americans are till disenfranchising The Native American Indians and that this dispossession has in fact being going on for 500 years. Your Indignous people are still expected to voluntarily assimiliate and I believe there are still "reserves" alive and kicking, even though there are pockets of Native American Indians that own these pieces of land and can use it to their economical advantage. But like you said, you can't put a price on freedom.
Dispossession is such a powerful force and governmental policies are such insidious things as they generally keep being perpetuated, just branded with another name, each new turn of government. And since Bush just keeps rearing his head from the reservoir of his family pot, not much changes for people that falll short of his protection and don't serve his regime.
Anyway, enough of my rant for the day. I really don't wanna drag this debate out.
It's been interesting chatting with you.
Have a cool weeeknd
