Hi Paul & All,                    Jan 13
    I have not noticed any posts from a Liberal Hack or any other stripe =
of Hack. But if you think Harper's form of government is acceptable then =
our views are at polar opposites and we can agree to disagree.=20

    He is, in my view, a great threat to everything that is of value in =
Canada and this includes the natural  world.=20
Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville

  If you wish the form to go that way Fred, its OK
  by me. But I'm not about to have a bunch of posts
  from a Liberal Hack who feed at their trough all his
  his working life and done nothing useful for it.
  I know where the disconnect button is located.
  Just tell the facts, let people decide.
  Have a nice day
  Paul
