So the interesting thing is what will US trade with China to get that vote should it come to it. Answer Starts with T ends with n ****** T----n Guess :-) 10 points for all succesful answers.

They know that if it is just Russia and/or China that try to veto an anti-Iraq action, they can be safely ignored. People in the US won't care and people in Europe won't like it but they will accept it. I think it is exactly because they know they probably can't get either Russia or China that they are so desperate to get France. The whole ignore the nay sayers tactic depends on making sure that there are not many nay sayers and that the ones that do exist are not respected. Jay

Being a soldier in either Quemoy or Matsu was a high stress no nonsense military assignment. Reason he gets 4 points outta 10 is that Formosa is no longer the legal name of Tai -Wan (Tai = star or heavenly, Wan = bay) Cheers Doug

This just in, kid: the mere fact that it's written down and believed in by millions of simpletons does not make something true.
