The British and Irish governments realised many years ago that the only way to end the problem was peaceful negotiation. -Gordon Syme ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as lists-ip () insecure org To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
