Char, I've never heard any anti-American sentiment from you. In fact, you have taken razzing from me about being a Canadian. It's just part of the banter that goes on in this place. I tease you about being a Canuck... you tease me about being a backwoods Mainer.
Sometimes I think some people feel a post is written with him or her in mind, when if fact, it's just a coincidence, or perhaps a little bit of razzing.

I've met Char on several occasions, and I've never, ever, EVER, seen or heard an instance where she's spoken poorly about anyone.

"I got the paranoia blues from walking around in New York City
Where they roll ya for a nickel, and stick ya for the extra dime
Anyway you choose, you're bound to lose in New York City
Oh, I just got out in the nick of time...."
(Paul Simon)
