You're probably correct Fred C - the tax aspect is probably their real motivation.

Mason - Dixon line excepted, I think that these people are morons.

No problems Rafiki, I see your registration date is 2003. I've just been speaking to Legro for the last hour. He's all in also. Must post up on XES.

Your inclusion goes w/o saying. Your post's are brilliant, in my humble opinion P.S.-I don't know how Jaguar "slipped under the wire", so to speak He knows alot about airplanes, no or am I confusing him w/ someone else?

The noisy Christians do not like the theory of evolution because it is a theory, so they say. Then let them suffer when they become ill for they forfeit the fruits of germ theory.

You are correct David...I am the airplane guy, however, I hardly think that I slipped under the wire...Just like Zapp and Colorado I am that constant thorn that challenges most of the liberal left wingers that post here. We are a minority and everyone loves to hate us and I LOVE being the underdog!!!

I may not agree w/ you guys most of the time because I'm a "free-thinker", not bound by convention, but I still appreciate different viewpoints that initiate discussion. I may not agree w/ the outcomes you reach but I have been enlightened by some of the methodology.

Ok Skippy...your going to have to give a little more insight...I know you are new to the Forum and one-liners only work if you have a fundamental knowledge of the topic...My curiosity is peaked as I love to debate religion and I have never heard of this before...please, type a little!

Ok then, time to plow new ground. We left wing "hippies" might shoot off our mouths a little often, but throughout my schooling many attempts were made to "save" me, many of which were threats on my life in disguise.
This really pissed me off...
