Memorial Day

Hey Notec,

Regardless of our beliefs, mores, and folkways, and the incredibly wide divergence in those, whether pro or anti military, pro or anti religious, what drives them and how it's mutated through the years, been commodified, commercialized, spun and used, try, oh try to keep it civil.

You'd be surprised at how many probably agree with some of your views but your approach to all of this is heavy handed and out of line.

Tolerance of your views demands tolerance of others. Try not to be so impulsive. Edit, re-edit and do what I do when it seems to be too strong a retort: delete it.

All the best,
Nonoise

Nonoise - I need to burn that in wood and hang it on my wall...Thanks.

Words cannot not adequately describe the sacrifice those who have served and their families have made. We live in the greatest nation on earth thanks to them.

I would like to use this Memorial Day podium (since Audiogon has decided to provide it) to express, with humility and respectful gratitude, my deep appreciation to all those who have fought, sometimes at the cost of much physical and psychic persecution, for peace and against some of the more egregious of our overseas adventures.
zmanastronomy, "the American way of life" supposedly includes the right to disagree.

Theo: You and I may have different definitions of freedom.
Nobody--not even the hallowed dead--can speak for all.
