Hey Brian;
As the UK is behind us in our efforts we ( at least I and mine) are with you in your strife.
Perhaps the BBC will now call a spade a spade and refer to these fanatic lunatics with the appropriate nomenclature " DIRTY BASTARD TERRORISTS"
Mark
Brian, all of us here in the "Colony" wish y'all the very best. Our hearts and prayers are with you.

Aren't there bulletin boards that concentrate on terrorism? I like this one because it is about flyfishing. What does terrorism have to do with flyfishing?
That may be so ktokj, but the members here are people and we care about one another.
Plus, there are a number of our own FAOL family who live, and work, and fish in the UK. When one family member suffers, or is in pain, a
we all suffer and share that pain. That's what families are all about.

Hey Ktokj:
It just occurs to me to ask you what kind of mindset must you be in to post such a PC statement. Trust me, I couldn't care less as to why YOU like this site. I like it very much too and apparently for VERY different reasons.

Brian, your Commonwealth friends are also behind you. I am confident that we will ultimately defeat these cowardly bastards. God speed. Rick Bennett, Canada
ktokj, flyfishing is a fabulous past time. Terrorism strikes at our lives and values. We are all brothers & sisters in both arenas. Sometimes we need to discuss our lives and values rather than fly fishing. The administrators of this site, JC and LF, have always had the kindness and good grace to let us do this. Please don't interfere if you can't contribute.

All,
I have contributed immensely to this board over he years, helping people on a wide variety of topics. I come to this board to talk about flyfishing and I am weighing in that I don't want to talk about terrorism, politics, the military, and other non-flyfishing related topics. Can't you respect my opinion, and not try to bash it? Geez, you don't think I know that terrorism is important and affect our lives? Do you think I'm some kind of simpleton? Give me a break. Let's get back to talking about flyfishing and leave all the terrorism and politics to a forum that is set up to talk about it. Just do a web search, you'll find hundreds you can say your peace to.
For the record, the company I work for is based in the UK. In fact, two people work with on a weekly basis live less than 3 hours from London. Do you think that I don't care about them or what's going on? No way. In fact one of my co-workers can't understand why Americans go around spending so much time in fear worrying about terrorism, instead of just living life to its fullest.
So to the few flames I got, all I can say it relax, get out on the river, and do some fishing. You obviously need to step back from the computer for a while.
