Well, Rich, I wish you had told that to the Nazis before they tortured and murdered my grandfather and most of my family in Lodz and Auschwitz. I also wish that you would have told that to the British when they imprisoned my father and uncle for being illegal Jewish refugees in the land of Israel. Maybe you could have told my mother in Israel that before she gave birth to me in Haifa? If you had known about the history of your people, Rich, you would know that the last name "Peter" is a distinctly Jewish surname from Eastern Europe. It is pronounced "Petter" and written in German and Polish phonetically as "Peter". It is a not uncommon Israeli name and has the approximate meaning of first-born ("one who cuts the womb") in Hebrew: [Exodus, Chap. 13]: "va'yomer HaShem el Moshe laymor: kadesh li kol b'chor PETTER kol rechem" ****** So please, Rich, lets keep the matter straight. Charley Wingate has enough problems to deal with besides having to wonder if I'm an apostate Xian. ------------ bill peter !cmcl2!lanl!wkp "Santa Claus must owe me a lot of presents..."
