More like some aid, but I am glad to see that the program's solid intentions are visible.<BR/>Thanks for the comment.James Rowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10203270946492159686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-14794726218270967202007-09-17T18:48:00.000-05:002007-09-17T18:48:00.000-05:00I am a conservative and I think that this is a gre...I am a conservative and I think that this is a great idea.
