   Heh.  You should hear the water-cooler talk in our office (which is   
   located somewhere in SW-Ontario).   
      
   We don't hold back when we discuss current events.   
      
   Why?   
      
   For one thing, not many women work at our place.   
      
   But more importantly, we only employ white folk.  No browns or blacks,   
   and especially no moozlems.

   Anyone working for the canadian human rights tribunal would faint if   
   they heard or read a transcript of the conversations we have in our work   
   place...   
      
   PS:  aioe server doesn't allow posting to any groups with "politics" in   
   the name, and only allows 3 groups in the cross-post, so if anyone wants   
   to re-post this into can.politics - please do.
