when you read that Indian villages were wiped out by disease, most of that was due to sexually transmitted diseases due to rape of the woman by the settlers. We all know the nice pilgrim story, but this country was settled by some pretty slimy characthers looking to make a fast buck. Its still the home I love though.
My wife and I have thought of moving to Australia, she has family there.

making s-b.com a kinder, gentler place for all
