This is Jonx responding to Anth below.  Personally, I think Jonx has completely lost it. Notice what Jonx says about parenting.  Who does this Jonx think he's talking to??? Quotes of Captain Rawat extolling the virtues of a mother's love for her children, the courage of rescue workers, or the love between his fellow human beings don't exist. Then you were never listening mate (okay rescue workers is a stretch). I don't have access to archives, nor do I have the time to do an extensive search, so I'm at a disadvantage. Nonetheless, I recall many times when he extolled the virtue of the human spirit. Example that comes to mind: "Human effort is human dignity". Also, I look at the example he has always given as a parent, and it exemplifies love, caring, and understanding. Look mate, I'm a parent; I know the virtues of what that means. But I know also that it has limits. He has always called a spade a spade in that regard, almost as a counter to the perception that parental love is the highest. It's high; it's joyous; it's fulfilling... yes... but it has limits. Ask the parent whose kids have left and they never hear from, or worse, whose kids have died. It's easy to get caught into some ego-centric martyr complex being a parent, and he's never let me get away with that. But that has never eroded my deep love for my kids, or appreciation for my responsibility as a parent. On the contrary, it has freed me to love them even more. Sorry mate but your tirade doesn't bear any resemblance to the real man... or have you totally forgotten?     Modified by Cynthia at Wed, Mar 30, 2005, 09:10:00
