I was trying to help, Eric. I also took the trouble to see where else
you might have posted, but only got sci.anthropology noted.
You refer to me as a pommy twit. This is the language of your white
oppressors, is it not?
The chip on your shoulder has got so big you can`t recognise empathy
when you hear it. Maybe you are not the right guy to represent your
people`s aspirations. Bitterness shrieks out from your angry and
inappropriate response. Even sympathisers shrink from bitterness.
With apologies to those who rightly think this has little to do with the
study of anthropology
