Madison, I will disagree with you in some points.
I come to Canada in 1995. That was the time when Internet just started
to be available to masses. I learned from the internet all I know
(except of physics that I knew already).
Canada has a very special policy. It is directed towards silencing
ethnic minorities, not towards giving them voice.
OK, if I am saying too much than lets go to talk privately, not on the
list. I will welcome that. Also, our new virtual friend, Renata, please
write me privately.
zb,
