Doubledolphins, I'm curious. Am I just being thick or is there something my junior years and woeful lack of historical knowledge has missed? Why were "quaint" Mustangs shooting at Buccaneers. Had N Korea / China purchased a job lot after WWII or were the yanks merely continuing a blue on blue tradition started in said conflict and continued in every one since. An old soldier friend who served in WWII once told me "When the Germans flew over, we ducked. When the British flew over, the Germans ducked. But when the Yanks flew over EVERYONE ducked!"

Merry Xmas and Seasons Greetings for '04 to one and all.

ps Did anyone see the "Grumpy Old Men at Christmas?" Classic, I taped it and made the familt watch it with me yesterday evening, haven't had such a laugh in a long time.
