> It is the wearer of the shoe who knows where it pinch!

Yes it is the wearer of the shoes who feels it. BUT shall we fix the
shoes and act on making them better or should we ONLY bitch and
complain about it? Talking about it is the first step to doing
something about it, BUT to never move out of merely talking is as
criminal as the act of racism itself. The worst part in this
situation is you are arguing with people who AGREE with you. NOBODY
is telling you your wrong, and many people have experienced similar
things. But by your accusations of an entire country and it's people
your just fueling the fire, it's like a dog chasing it's tail... It
NEVER ends. Ian we are all on your side and all of us are for human
rights, THAT'S one of the many things THE SHIP WAS ABOUT. So we
should not be wasting time arguing about it, or should we? You tell
me which you think is better, and after you give me your well thought
out SWY opinion on wether it is constructive or not to argue about it
until we are blue in the face, or do something about it. Then I will
follow you.

>Looks like I openned a can of worms. Not the right one I suppose!

You think YOU opened the can of worms on Racism? I don't know what
you talked about on your Ship but on the 13th, the issue certainly
came up my friend.

>One question I may ask you guys who have recounted their encounters
>with the customs officers "WAS IT RACIALLY MOTIVATED?".

YES, Ian, unfortunately mine was.

>If you are truely the Nippon Maru siblings then you will pray with
>me and act as I have.

Show me what you've done Ian and I'll help. I don't believe in
praying, I believe in action, it's much more efficient, praying just
helps once your 6 feet under and worm food!!

>If you hate me, why can't you treat me the way you treat your bet,
>why do you want to see me dead?

You certainly have a flare for the dramatic Ian.
Do you think people on this list HATE you? Well that issue I can't
even address. If you were physically and mentally on the same Ship as
I and you now think that the people on this list, fellow Shippers,
hate you.... It is not possible that we were on the same Ship.

That's all I have for Today. About Bryan Adams.... I have NOOO
clue!!!
