Mostly downtown LA, and it's coming back on now. Too soon to tell if the
Bush administration is at fault.

OK, OK - IT WAS JUST A JOKE.

Sheesh

It shouldn't.  Airports are required (by the FAA) to have full emergency
back power sources.

Did you notice how nicely the drivers behaved at the dark lights?
Now, picture that in Boston or NYC.

Isn't LA the home of freeway shootings?  They probably figure the other
drivers are armed.

As the late, great Robert A. Heinlein said, "An armed society is a
polite society".

Jeff,
In both California and Britain, the drivers act politely.

I don't know if this is out of kindness, but in both societies,
they/we seem to have discovered that you get where you
want to go if drivers are like this.

However, if you have the time to waste, are big and have a
banged-up car, it's a lot more fun to drive in NYC or Boston!

Lark Parker - 13 Sep 2005 22:07 GMT
Pat, here is the complete Teddy Roosevelt quote in case you need it:

"The President is merely the most important among a large number of public
servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is
warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in
rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole.
Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell
the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame
him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude
in an American citizen is both base and servile. To announce that there must be
no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right
or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the
American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one
else. But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant,
about him than about any one else.""

Sure. Just use the part that serves your viewpoint.<GG>

For instance:
"We must remember not to judge any public servant by any one act, and especially
should we beware of attacking the men who are merely the occasions and not the
causes of disaster."
Theodore Roosevelt

can be shortened to:
"judge any public servant by any one act"
Theodore Roosevelt

Here’s a couple more from Teddy Roosevelt that can be used after some selected
pruning.

"War is not merely justifiable, but imperative upon honorable men, upon an
honorable nation, where peace can only be obtained by the sacrifice of
conscientious conviction or of the national welfare."     TR

"We live in a great and free country only because our forefathers were willing
to wage war rather than accept the peace that spells destruction."  TR
