That said; I'm not a fan of what they are doing.<BR/><BR/>Robert: Good to hear from you again man.

Yet that's exactly what these unfortunate people need.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08210753167984462321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8280041101121852634.post-66049074825624617402009-04-13T06:30:00.000-04:002009-04-13T06:30:00.000-04:00I think you should go back and read your own link ...I think you should go back and read your own link to the causes of the situation.
