First - there are no guarantees that there won't
be *more* attacks here - or haven't you heard that 
we have added to the judicial and legislative functions 
of government security to provide a defense ?

Second - with more than 1000 dead Americans -
and counting - the surviving parents, siblings, 
spouses, children do not think any more of acting
as a catalyst than I, even if you do.

Third - the person who has been touted as being
responsible for starting all this is still at large ... 
his name is Osama bin Laden - why are we 
continuing to "spend" money, material, and men 
to hammer Iraq when Americans are hurting *here* ?
I don't know how "well fixed" you are, but there
are homeless *here* and people without jobs
and people *with* jobs who are not making ends
meet, nor do they have medical insurance, nor
pensions nor .... aaaaah, what's the use ....

Portland, Ore., to build a year-round indoor market. He said a seasonal
farmers' market has thrived in the city for 10 years. Community leaders want
to build a permanent bazaar that could offer a variety of items related to
food, from fresh produce to cooking utensils."

When the ex and I lived in Portland ('64/'65) there was a year-round indoor
open-air farmers market.  It was a city block and there were tables and some
permanent folks like a butcher, baker, etc.  It was one of the things we
loved about the city.

Hmmmm, wonder what happened to it.
