LOL.... But I have to say, I find that pretty sad. I'd hope that
anyone who participated in even one war would learn the futility of
killing each other, and learn some compassion for his fellow man.

Yeah, and unfortunately, these kinds of "articles" are about all that
we are "allowed" to read about this assinine war...THAT is what ****es
me off. To get any decent news, you have to surf to Europe or the
Middle East when they aren't blocking the connections...

Humm....I didn't know we were going to be on the same flight!
LOL...Seriously, I don't worry about the odd passenger with a
peanutbutter cookie or sandwich - I can always ask to be moved. In
fact, I don't expect anyone individual to take us into consideration.
What I do worry about is an entire cabin or airplane filled with nuts.
I just want the option of changing flights if nuts are served.

Neither am I. I feel sorry for the kids who feel like they have no
option but to join the military because they are poor and not
academically gifted. There's a whole hell of a lot of them giving
their lives for being poor.
