Re: [ga] GA-REVIEW & Other Mailing Lists


Both of you are right but in your brutality you are both wrong.  Joanna I am a
proud US citizen yet my views on privacy make yours pale in comparison. You chose

I and every representative of my country is the US position. I am not offended but
I will be shortly!

Sincerely,
