    Allen, it wasn't a 'rant' as per se. ...I simply expressed my feelings of the moment with 'tact'.

    I learned a long time ago that being a 'complainer' gets you nowhere.
    But there are ways to tell the truth, and that's important for the best of everyone's evolution and emancipation and freedom and peace in this world of too many deceptions, illusions, lies and corruption. ...At all levels in our societies.

    No one should be afraid to speak the truth; because if we don't we are simply not true to ourselves.

    Have an excellent weekend,
    Bob
