Re: Politics and farming (WAY offtopic)

Hi Joe

At the risk of setting you off <g> can we extend the definition of political bilge to include the seemingly constant references to H1Bs (or whatever they are).

Cheers

It was pointed out to me that this is also political bilge, and for that
I apologize.  It was not intended as a remark having anything to do with
the WTO or any of the craziness going on with multinational corporations
and their practices in third world countries, though it could be
construed that way.  Thanks to the nameless person who brought this to
my attention.

In any event, let's keep the politics out of the list. Anybody who
wishes to pummel me about the WTO and the plight of third world farmers
can do so privately.  You know my email address <grin>.

Joe
