Presumably, its electric fields are aligned in only one direction, so that it cannot pass Polaroid filters.

Remembering the war is a bit different from endorsing the war, Boris. Note that the wording, which was generally considered acceptable, does mention the war.

I don't know how the story comes across to others, but I take heart from it. Being "polarized" didn't stop people from being civil to each other and even doing something to work things out in a way that everyone could support.
Just wish there were more examples of that to point to.

That's a good point. But I get grumpy and mean when people start complaining about how something is worded. It's just nit-picky and rude to me.

Um, a president is elected with 51% of the vote and believes he has an overwhelming mandate?
And just because I'm not sure I've mentioned it, as opposed as I am to this war, my nephew is in Tikrit. If anything happened to him, I would want him honored, but I also agree that it shouldn't be in a way that would seem like we were endorsing the war.
Oh, and he was got to do one of the "Message from the troops" during the news last week. It was cool.

I suppose we are actually a bi-polar country on our own right now.
And I wouldn't want to be bonded to another polar nation. Those nations in the polar region are too darn cold.

Dag, everytime I hear the phrase "overwhelming mandate, I can't help but think of that line from the Princess Bride. You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. Posts: 9871 | Registered: Aug 2001
