No - I haven't forgotten. NO time in history is the best of times, but we can remember the good of it and wish it were here now.

And, btw, you did say:

<<just moving this forward. i didn't get an answer from anyone on why the feds, mexico, or anyone else should be up in arms about this law. it wasn't a rhetorical question-i really want to know why this is a bad law, or misinformed, etc.>>

I believe I was the first person to step forward and write in support of Arizona's law. I'm sorry if it didn't meet your approval.

i sure wrote that. i've witnessed many occasions on here where people agree with some things, and disagree on others. i'm surprised you think that because you agreed with a point i made, that i had to agree with everything you posted.

No - not asking you to agree with anything . Just wondering why the sarcasm when I did what you asked and added a humorous extra comparing
'57 - '10. Wouldn't it be nice if we could pick the best of each decade and make a utopia?!~ But, I'm sure we couldn't agree on that either.

So many people preaching tolerance and so few practicing it.

It truly is a contagious condition - intolerance, that is. Hope you didn't hurt yourself too badly in the explosion.
