Well, let's just say nobody makes distinctions when the time comes to go after
us.  (I did note the smiley-face.)  As for "full-blooded," I'm
Puerto-Rican-Polish-Ukranian-Jewish, and if you think that doesn't make it
difficult to fill out those blasted affirmative action checklists, you've got
another think coming.

And since this is (was) net.nlang, where *does* the construction "if you think
x, you've got another think coming" come from?
