Edi, thanks for your clarification and sorry for my late response.  I
somehow missed your response because my mailbox was flooded.  I apologize
for not getting your point the first time and I think we are on the same
page. Sorry for any inconvenience my response may have caused you.

Chi Jaama

>>Edi, thanks for your position on this issue.  I however, find it hard to

>>This
>>is money that we are going to repay with interest and we did not benefit

>>we
>>see, the very people he stole from beg from him and turn around to defend
>>him.  Not to say you are one of those people, but you sure do act like
>>them.

>>are going to defend Ebou Jallow.  Historically, that's how we are.  We
>>glorify the thief with the expectation of getting a trinket from the loot.
>>Now that I know your position and you know mine on this issue, why don't
