If the technology had been more advanced perhaps some of you could email me some of those cookies. <br>> <br>> Common cold hasn't been cured because it does not threaten thousands of lives. (yes, I happen to believe AIDS is a completely different ballgame) <br>> <br>> I don't know many Kiwi's that like Helen Clark -- perhaps I just know the right one's. Her pronouncements have almost no currency here in the US. I find absolutely no animosity toward the Kiwi's for not actively backing the US in the Iraqi war. <br>> <br>> To those of you who think we're going to engage in a big retaliation program, well I'll turn it back on you -- YOU DO NOT know the Americans very well. Yes we are a patriotic lot, to be sure (especially since 9/11) but,we are also very diverse in our culture, our society and our politics. France and Germany are get > ting all the flak, because we pulled France's fanny out of the fire twice and many suspect both France and Germany had economic interests that kept them from backing the effort. I know of no economic interest that colored NZ's decision. <br>> <br>> I might also point out that I don't live under a rock. I'm fairly well plugged in and haven't heard so much as a hint that NZ is on the black list. We still use Fisher & Paykel products at my Health Maintenance Organization, stores still sell Fisher & Paykel appliances, and most of the muscles I see in our stores are from NZ to say nothing of the Lamb. Don't worry, be happy, we're not your enemy. <br>> <br>> In all fairness to the French, they pulled our fannies out of the fire too, at the very begining, when we had our disagreement with George, and we were very thankful for that. That however was 200+ years ago and over the past 25 years or so they have been flacid in their support of many of our efforts. (legitimate ones) > We do have a question for the French and Germans -- if you get in trouble -- who are you going to call? A. Sadaam Insane B. Russia C.Japan<br>> D. North Korea E. Raratonga F. The United States. Even a Frenchmen could figure that out. <br>> <br>> But seriously, I don't think any economic boycott is going to befall NZ because of this. <br>> <br>> Enjoy your holiday and quit worrying. <br>> <br>> Allan <br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> --- On Thu 04/24, mvanv < mvanv@xtra.co.nz > wrote:<br>> From: mvanv [mailto: mvanv@xtra.co.nz]<br>> To: sharechat@sharechat.co.nz<br>> Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2003 09:25:41 +1200<br>> Subject: Re: Re: [sharechat] Sars etc <br>> <br>> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"><br>> <HTML><HEAD><br>> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"><br>> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2723.2500" name=GENERATOR><br>> <STYLE></STYLE><br>> </HEAD><br>> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff><br>> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Lazy H > aggis wrote;</FONT></DIV><br>> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV><br>> <DIV>I suspect the real impact of SARS is only just in its infancy, plus NZ's <br>> <BR>economy has yet to suffer at the hand's of the USA because of your Prime <br>> <BR>Minister's handling of the Iraq war.
