    Hi ferval

    I have a different view:

    Do not go gentle into that good night,
    Old age should burn and rage at close of day;
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
    Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
    Because their words had forked no lightning they
    Do not go gentle into that good night.

    Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
    Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
    And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
    Do not go gentle into that good night.

    Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
    Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    And you, my father, there on the sad height,
    Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
    Do not go gentle into that good night.
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.


    On the floor of the lifts in one of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ buildings is this motto

    "Nation Shall Speak Peace Unto Nation"

    It is part of their Coat of Arms......

    Surely being able to communicate Peace Nation unto Nation through time using History is a noble quest for the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ to continue.

    Sometihing for our young to reference back to.

    It is our common experiences that shared have a huge impact on the World Stage. If we as a Nation or as a Number of Nations lose this we are the poorer for it.

    There are lessons to be learnt from the past that can guide us safely through an unknown future but as the saying goes "use it or lose it".

    I would miss it - how many of the rest of you are prepared to tell the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ that it should be kept?

    Kind Regards - TA

    TA, as I said on another thread, I'm getting weary of raging impotently. I will be delighted to tell the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ that it should be kept but I doubt my opinion will reach their Finance director, the only one whose dictats are followed blindly.

    Where are all the other posters who have made this such a rewarding board? I miss the Saxon Shore and even the sky pixie.

    Hi ferval

    I agree - where is everyone?

    It's more like the Mary Celeste here at the moment than a discussion board, there are more people on the airship........

    Be prepared to repel boarders (sorry about the pun).

    Kind Regards - TA
