Now Red Cloud was longer, of steel rather than fiberglass and engaged in

Um...Marty, how do you throw adjectives like "the rich" into a value
equation. Is there some calculus by which you can determine how much more
a
poor man's boat is worth than that of a rich man?


Ah, now Dave I think you're merely being disingenuous, rather than merely
simple. It is obvious to most that the assets of the "rich" are indeed
more worthy protecting. Now don't bother spouting some nonsense about
paranoia, it happens repeatedly. I'll bet you that if one of the Duponts
reports their dog missing in Delaware that there will be a much larger
effort given to finding it than if you report your dog missing.

To deny that money buys influence and that sycophancy is nonexistent is
simply foolish.

Cheers

The New Orleans disaster is a great example... the poor are just not
important enough to be saved.
