Dear Mr. Rick Are you familiar with Tom Brokaws book "The greatest generation?" with reference to all those Americans here and abroad who sacrificed and engaged in the war effort during the last years of WW2. They had the will & the stomach and succeeded. But the times and this situation are clearly different now. Even though we sacrifice and continue to sacrifice we will not be known as the greatest generation because of the fucking mess these wars have caused and the lack of political cohesiveness in our country. No matter how much will, and blood, and money we pour into this effort there are certain fundamental truths we have to face and that is that it is a clash of cultures we are dealing with. Its going to take a lot more than bombs and lives to change that. Are we getting impatient? You bet- It's infuriating to watch lives and billions of dollars evaporate year after year which could be put to use to improve things right here. The solution to most human related problems is birth control and education. Beware of the collateralizing and monetization of your desires. D S #3.1415

dude I can't get past that face, It makes me want to say "'oows yer mum, 'aas she been diddlin' the vicker again aye?" Anyway,my view is that if these conflicts are going to someday dissipate, it will have to start with the hearts and minds of the individual. I have been watching the news for over 30 years and I can't remember a time when there was so much turmoil. Vietnam comes to mind but it is similar only by a small overlap of political fundamentals. However the prerequisite for war seems the same and it is usually based on a defense from some form of adverse possession. In the case of the middle east however there is a strong undertow of deeply rooted religious differences over many generations, a clash of ideological superpowers if you will. A very difficult situation to resolve diplomatically. What do each of these combatants want short of the extermination of the other. What can we give them to ease their aggression? In the case of the neighborhood a clearly defined boundary fortified with a fence seems to work best. I think humans need this kind of barrier to feel a pride of place;You stay on your side and vice versa, it's simple and it works. In nature there is a fence of sorts defined usually by some sort of scent marking. Animals don't seem to have any sense of respect for each other, they take what they can get away with, BUT they do understand the consequences of a crossed boundary. Such ideologically different cultures and clans as we find in the middle east are not ready to live together on the same land. Not yet, they need their own countries in order to feel secure and a clearly defined border. Then perhaps through trade they can come to an understanding.

....and just to tie this back to the Reuters issue, Do they have an agenda? yes and that is to promote distribution. After all, News organizations are only as good as they are profitable, it is a business just like any other. Even PBS which is funded by public donation has its moments of embellishment. Bad news is good news for any news media organization. Beware of the collateralizing and monetization of your desires. D S #3.1415

yep, and that's why I never want to become a politician. Most people are too self absorbed to really care about how others rate to begin with. However other peoples opinions only really matter if that information is used to do someone damage or it affects ones ability to get what they want out of life...like job status,standing in a community,parenting skills,etc. personally I don't care about opinions, you have to make your own way in this life. As for DZ .com or as my GF likes to say "Those nuts you talk to on the internet when you want to escape reality" I hope that I can at least be entertaining once in a while, and vice versa. shit, did i type that out loud, or did i just think it?

Ahh after a weekend of jumping I was hoping for some debate here, funny I did a search on adverse possession and only one thread showed up....Jan 2004, I'll just blather on about this then, anyway....when I first moved to my current home I noticed that my neighbors (on four sides) were mowing and planted or placed their stuff on my property,clearly over the property line, not a big deal, I was getting pies and all kinds of help and advice from them. Then I read about adverse possession. A means by which people can legally acquire land by openly and aggressively occupying it over a designated time frame, usually 7 to 15 years depending on where you live. I did some math and figured I still had time to evict the occupiers without going to court First I asked nicely using some humor since we were still on pie giving terms.That got some results but not enough. Then I hired a surveyor and had the lines re established. which showed just how far the encroachment was. The pie giving stopped, so did the humor. Finally I had to get the chain saw and the bucket loader out and reclaim my land....I put up a nice split rail fence It turns out that in this world you have to make some enemies to keep what you have, if that matters to you. As an existentialist I should not care cuz none of this shit matters but I can at least understand the animosity in the middle east and elsewhere as a result of this experience. The question remains; how best to handle land disputes? Beware of the collateralizing and monetization of your desires. D S #3.1415

Anyone who owns real property by the rule of law will at some point be faced with the fact that others can and will try to encroach,establish easements on, or take over - part or all of your "property" if given the means and opportunity. This seems to apply for individual land owners mowing each others grass, nations (i.e. Iraq vs Kuwait, Israel vs. Lebanon, U.S vs. Iraq, the Roman empire) or animals fighting over a kill. Should we strive to live by the rule of law or should we live by the rule of nature where the more aggressive more powerful entity gets the spoils. Discuss Granted, in the end it is the truly meek microbes that win. Beware of the collateralizing and monetization of your desires. D S #3.1415

Ms coulter, Mr franken, Limbeau (sp?),Stern,Martha stewart, These people have discovered that their opinions are marketable to their base and sometimes to the general public.
