Thats a good reason Peter, I guess I hadn't thought of that. I was just
running along the lines that everyone would might participate in their local
group activities until there was a "national" event, but the points you make
are ones i didn't think of. We do need to identify oursleves nationally.

Ahh, was my sarcastic tone a bit to harsh?
I was quoting the scene from Life of Brian, when the Judena Peoples Front want
to get rid of the Romans from their city. The question is asked "what have the
Romans ever done for us?"
To which the end conclcusion ran something like "apart from the aqueduct,the
sanitation, the roads, health, education, law...what have the Romans ever done
for us?"
LA are in my good books at the moment for their treatment of the soccer sets.
I just hope they come down heav on those stores that haven't reduced the price.

[1] Still have not drafted up a letter, have only one more week of work to go
