Thank you JohnW, One of the things I love about forums is getting to hear opinions from around the world and you are a good ambassador for the United States! We once "clashed" when I made reference in another thread about American teenagers but I find it so interesting to hear the views of others on how they see us Brits as I am sure that you do also.
In the instance of this particular thread, I found your views riveting especially your comments made on 25/08 to Mickey. I totally agree with you and personally am in full favour of a continued relationship between the U.S. and the U.K. If we were threatened by another nation in the future, I feel sure that the U.S. would back us to the hilt ---but if we relied on the European countries for help, they would still be debating the merits of helping or not years after we have been taken over!

Saying that, How strong is censorship in the U.S,? The reason I ask this is that my I.S.P. is AOL and while reading this thread, am continually being bombarded with a message saying "THIS AREA OF AMERICA ON LINE IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE" It hasn't otherwise affected my net but I wonder if this posting will be allowed to go through? and has anyone else come across this? In all the years with AOL, I haven't come across this particular message before, Have you upset anyone on high JohnW??
