Well, ladies and gents, my tenure here at DEC has come to a close as
of this Friday.
Noting in the CELT file has been most enjoyable and deeply
enlightening. My knowledge of Irish language and culture has been
greatly increased and I've laughed til it hurt more times than my
ribs care to remember.
In departing, I just want to extend my greatest thanks to all who
I've come to know from participating in this forum and I sincerely
hope we can continue to meet on the occasion.
My hopes for peace in the north of Ireland will never wane and I
will always endeavor to express that desire, to teach and to learn
those things that will help end that war and bring peace to a people
who've given so much to the world.
For certain, laughter was invented in Ireland.
Slainte,
Frank

Sorry to see you go Frank ,
I haven't always shared your point of view but isn't that what NOTES
are all about .
Good Luck at whatever you turn your hand to next
As they say in Ireland
"May the road rise with you, and the wind be always at your back,
and may the Lord hold you in the hollow of His hand"
Regards,
Feargal .

Frank,
Good bye, Good Luck and Good hunting. It's is a dark day for us
all. I may follow who knows where the axe will fall next. I will miss
your informative notes on the North Ireland subject. I have learned from
you which is the way it should be for us all. Your notes were always
objective (a little 8*)). I sure did like the names you dubbed them with
like Tonto etc.!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep up the good work. One day maybe they (the ill informed, myopic
and unwilling to admit that HMG is as much to blame as anyone) will wake
up and take a pen in hand for the purpose of doing something constructive
to end the war. I know you and the work you have done. We all owe you a
round of applause as you leave. With what you do in your private life I
have no doubt our paths will cross.
But please send me your address and phone # so if something important
comes up I can call you.
paddy (very sad to see you go)

Frank,
It never ceased to amaze me how accurate, and on target you were in
your notes about how the Brits perpetuate the murder and madness in
NI for their own 'hidden agenda.'
Having served in Viet Nam, I'm sure you know how the U.S. gummint
fascists that ran that war couldn't stomach the thought of being beaten
by an "inferior" Third World people, the Vietnamese. Well, so too in NI,
the Brits, racists ever, can't stomach the thought of having been beaten
by the Irish - after 823 years of continued repression. So they
futilely continue the war, just like our government did in Viet Nam.
Having just returned from Belfast, Derry, and a few days stay
in the Free State, I can tell you first-hand, Frank, that not only are
the Brits dishonest about their claim to NI, (which you knew all
along), they have now been reduced to using little children as shields,
and hidding behind women's skirts in an attempt to keep a toe-hold on the
Irish island.
They are building their military bases next to an elementary school,
(in Newry), and in Derry, on the road to Buncrana, they have built a
border check-point virtually around a woman's house, enclosing her
house within the check-point.
Dishonest (always), and now *cowardly* to boot.
You may have never been to NI, but you certainly knew the truth of
what's going on over there. I will miss your quick thrashing of
those with wooden heads.

RE: 1114.6

of yours!!!!
