Jap-Am, short for "Japanese-Americans". I don't know about you, but I

when I can.


When we took these "threats to national security" off to prison camps

Correction, they were NOT prison camps.

Idiot. People were taken to these places and not allowed to leave. That's a
prison no matter how you look at it.

Name-calling already? Usually that signifies loss of argument. [Well,
I can't think of anything else, so I'll call you a name and pretend
I've won.]

So, you have no objection to being called "KKK Fundie Dave?" Short for
Krazed Kristian Konservative Fundamentalist Dave? :}

Are we back to name-calling withing 48 hours?

The proposed "truce" was a farce from the beginning. The OT posts are back
as strong as ever as are the negative posts, snide posts and name calling.

Some folks will never change despite promises by them that they will.

Life's weird.

Next time you are out my way, drop me a line.

Where exactly ARE you, anyway? :-) I know you're Northeast of Yonkers, but
beyond that.....???

NE corner of CT, but I'm not that far by road from anywhere.

Near Storrs?

About 25 miles SW of me.

All the best,

Any thoughts on Dave's theory that Japanese citizens were held in a place
that wasn't really a prison?

Is it a dry county? And, can ya get there from here? :-)

after 3 days of October hiking without a bath, a certain female in my life

Did you complain to all the animal parents that the animal kiddies were
pooping around your campsite?

IIRC the Americans... yes, native born Americans of Japanese descent...
interned during WW2 were not only from the West Coast.

Heck yeah, there was a German sub sunk at the mouth of the Potomac River!


There is one sunk off of Newport which was a scuttle after being
attacked on the surface by the CG and another out by The Dump that is
a confirmed Uboat, but they don't have the documentation on it.

Later,

Is that the one the private divers discovered and researched? Show on PBS
one time about it.

I've always used the term "concentration camp" to describe the places.

Storrs was "dry" the three weeks I spent there the summer after my
junior year of high school. By now, surely, it has changed. Even Kansas
sells booze by the drink.
