Sam (and others who seem to be obsessed with this theme)

Please remember that this is a Smalltalk discussion group.

As an observer - in another country - known for our bluntness - I can't
help thinking this is an insensitive discussion that is achieving little
useful purpose other than as an outlet for some folks emotive
expression.

Please do yourself and the rest of us observers a favour (please)

Take this off-line - deal directly with the parties involved and
leave the majority of us out of this meaningless loop.

Cheers
