Mr Yeropulloh
    It was not meant to be a teasing question, but rather a sarcastic one!!

Anywayz, perhaps next time you are in The Gambia, you should check in at the eye
care unit, you might be surprised by the findings of the surgeons(LOL).
I doubt if there could be any person much more in need of sight-saving than one
who cannot see or perhaps refuse to see the evil in the killing of kids.
I am grateful to Allah that my eye sight is in perfect order so far, and as
my mind well, it sees very clearly, perhaps even much more clearly than a
person of my olden age of 28yrs.  I am also fortunate to be educated, not just
schooled but E D U C A T E D.

Thanx.
Manneh, Nyancho Jonkendee Falla
