I've stopped taking into account some people's political comments on this
list, but sometimes it's too much to bear.

The word "cunt" springs to my mind, but then I don't want to be impolite so
I will not shout it out loud :-)
Allow me to say that responding like this to a message from a person whose
country is being heavily bombed while we are reading and writing nice e-mail
to each other is absolutely wrong and idiotic.
I am not questioning whether it is right or wrong to do what NATO is doing
and what Milosevic is doing (now THAT would be off topic on this list), but
I just can't stand this kind of callous comment. You are miles away from
what is happening. You never had bombs in yr country, probably. Just shut
up, OK? Take your head and put it back up your ass, idiot.

And think once more before sending out stuff like that.
