I really don't see what the big deal of discussing war is on this forum.
There are many times that this group gets off of the subject, why not no?
War time is not peaceful for us or our trees. Many Proud Patriotic Americans
are under stress and discussing it (no matter where) is a way of venting.
Our economy is shot with fear of job security or finding work and we're at
war with an ungodly figure. So I only ask why not vent a little?

Ungodly figure ? !!!....and this is exactly the sort of statements Jim and
many others would probably like to avoid... I have to agree that this could
very easily get way out of hand and way too far away from Bonsai No ? think
on it....BobO

Folks, I will say it ONCE more. We are NOT going to discuss this
and even when someone defends my position on list it merely feeds
the fuel and you will be OFF until you pledge to leave it alone.

I do NOT need defending. So stop. Please!

OK by me. They do it periodically in rec.gardens. Some purists get upset, so
don't overdo it.

Sorry, list! The message was supposed to be off-list.

Maybe cause we are not only Proud Patriotic Americans here, and some of us
are not supporting this war. So Jim was allright, It can be a bit difficult
theme to talk about in this list.
