   Maybe  that's because I'm a stupid leftist. There is
also the possibility that you were not able to read the

   Leaving  aside  that  I was talking about Europe and
not  only  Holland, are you sure that it has nothing to
do  with  the  US?  And then you talk about the role of
perceptions?  Come on, Dan, you can't be serious. (Even
the most basic Huayan follower could habe said you that
everything is related somehow.)
