Hell, I get a great deal of satisfaction out of seeing these people brought to justice. I posted a message of support after Sept 11th which, I hope, leaves no doubt as to where my sympathies lie. My point was, and remains, that I'm growing a little weary of the continual "let's-turn-Afghanistan-into-a-parking-lot" posts made by a few individuals on the Airline and Skyone lists. I had thought that many list members had complained about them and that the moderator had more or less knocked the practice on the head but it seems some of those individuals just haven't got the message. Guess I'll just have to add another couple of names to my email filter list which is a pity because I run the risk of missing relevant posts. I just think that the majority of posts to these lists should be about aviation. There are plenty of other forums for people to vent their anger. Regarding the photos, a number of people have requested them. Expect them in the next 24 to 48 hours. I can't send them now because, being a forgetful putz, I've left them on my office PC so I'll do it when I get to work on Monday morning (Australian time) Cheers Grant SYD QF
