One can't reason with a fanatic.<br /><br />I figured it was one of those Word to WordPress things.

One was my boss, the other a co-worker in a different department. Since we had nothing else to do in the stop-and-go, we would frequently talk about world events - always respectful of each other's views. And frequently we got to understand the other viewpoint. <br /><br />Liz, the co-worker, was from Belgium and of the "Green" party sort. Had definite ideas about NATO, and since I was stationed over there in the 70s, I had my ideas, too :-) But we each got our ideas across and understood a bit of there the other was coming from. <br /><br />There is so little of that today. <br /><br />BTW Sarge you are right about that horrible formatting. It looked good in the Word document and then I pasted it to Wordpress it all seemed fine - until I saved it :-) <br /><br />I could sense Lex cringing somewhere ;-) Bill Brandthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06296770640153629109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-58117685112252275592015-03-13T10:36:18.014-07:002015-03-13T10:36:18.014-07:00And we do it again and again, like we have learned...And we do it again and again, like we have learned nothing.OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-34377960070407137132015-03-13T10:15:31.400-07:002015-03-13T10:15:31.400-07:00Like you said, the opening picture made me look at...Like you said, the opening picture made me look at it for a long time, was imagining all the fighting and killing that took place in and around it, all for nothing.Haddockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11573906991666088642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-13930439876723735022015-03-13T09:35:12.221-07:002015-03-13T09:35:12.221-07:00Good thoughts Skip.Good thoughts Skip.OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-82684029795063062422015-03-13T08:40:28.805-07:002015-03-13T08:40:28.805-07:00"There are plenty of things to hate in this w...<i>"There are plenty of things to hate in this world."</i><br /><br />But not people, places, and things... just some of what they might represent.<br />Opinion leaves us open to change... judgement not so much.<br /><br /><br />(not necessarily your) Uncle Skiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02705753220273516841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-67100781445440045322015-03-13T08:36:14.056-07:002015-03-13T08:36:14.056-07:00If you can find two people who agree with each oth...If you can find two people who agree with each other on everything, one of them must surely be lying.<br /><br />Thanks Joe.OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-58604483551164346102015-03-13T08:35:41.049-07:002015-03-13T08:35:41.049-07:00Yes, that "socially acceptable" part is ...Yes, that "socially acceptable" part is a killer.

Those who embrace and live that principle find it exceedingly hard to hate. Those who add the "yabbut..." and the "well, except," not so much. Unfortunately there are a lot of folks who have always and will always see their fellows as things rather sovereign human beings. They live a hellish existence, the poor barstids.PrairieAdventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466447251827774900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-80577574491728404292015-03-13T05:07:10.435-07:002015-03-13T05:07:10.435-07:00Well said, Sarge.Well said, Sarge.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12033897909182292097noreply@blogger.com
