What I am is shockingly careless in expressing myself. I incorrectly assumed that the general topic of "foreign affairs" qualified my statement as being related to that topic. I made a serious error in my argument, one which in fact I would have pointed out to an opponent. What I had intended to say was that I see little difference, except in degree, between the foreign policies of the Soviets and the foreign policies of the United States. Besides, we were speaking of contemporary events, not semi-ancient history. Never the less, the error was mine, I accept full responsibility for it, and apologize to any who might have been upset or inconvenienced by it. -- ==================================== Disclaimer: I hereby disclaim any and all responsibility for disclaimers. tom keller {ihnp4, dual}!ptsfa!gilbbs!mc68020 (* we may not be big, but we're small! *)
