May I second Dave's comments here. While I am a Jew of Dutch origin,
I claim neither Ashkenazi nor S'fardi (they may or may not claim me,
that's a different matter). I simply want to be known as a Jew. Would
that we were more conscious of the term 'Am ekhad'. I have great 
respect for both S'fardim and Ashkenzim, and for Mr. Martillo who has
shown the mental acumen Dave has noted. I would, however, prefer that
greater effort be made toward healing such wounds rather than pouring
in salt.
