Ouch! Donner, party of eight.....wait, seven.....no, six.....:laughing:
Dear Sir: Your are fairly accurate in your assumption. BTW, I wasn't offended by the OP's remarks. I don't have "Onion Skin". The somewhat analogy that I made is regards to a "Checker" player and a "Chess" player refers that when playing CHECKERS, sometimes one opponent changes the game rules midstream when it best suits their position. This can't be done when playing CHESS. In the OP's fourth post he clearly stated, "Would I push the button? Maybe". It is apparent that the OP has changed his direction several times in this thread. I regard this member as a decent individual, but as the old saying goes, "You can't have your cake and eat it too". He derives many things from today's Modern Technology, but on the other hand, he regards condemning tens of millions of people to certain doom, starvation and death by "Pushing the Button" as acceptable. Here's a short narrative of my learning experience. My Father was in the U.S. Army during WWII. He fought campaigns to liberate Europe including Germany and served in Germany for several years during the post War years. He met my Mother in Frankfurt, and married her. They were married three times to make it legal- Germany, Austria and New York City. I was born in Salzburg, Austria. During my entire lifetime, I never saw my Mother eat tomatoes, although she prepared them for us. I once asked my Father for the reason. My Father informed me that for two summers during the ravages of WAR, the main food that my Mother lived on was TOMATOES and GRASS. My Mother was an orphan in Austria and Germany, and she never talked to us Children about her experiences. She only talked at times to my Father-her Husband. I could never, ever agree with anybody that would even mention the possibility of even thinking about PUSHING the button. No matter how remote the possibility. This position is not to be defended in any way. Not only my thoughts, but a civilized VIEWPOINT. Thanks for listening.
