Hi Brad:

Good explanation. I did talk to a fellow at the airport today, who said basically the same thing as you. In his words they are all muslim, and they hate anyone who is white or non-muslim they are considered as infidels. Typically, he said that all muslim type countries have problems with civil war. Countries such as Sudan, Indonesia, and Iraq. They all are poor as well.

An Aussie gentleman mentioned that Indonesia=(Vietnam+Iraq)x50.

On a more positive note, did you happen to see if there were any WW2 aircraft dumps in eastern Java anywhere?

Thanks,

Chris

I'm not trying heat things back up on this subject, but, I need to throw my two cents worth in. Don't discount what Rob Rohr and others have been trying to tell you. What you do is your own business and you can go about things in your own fashion, BUT, there are others out there who have been working on recoveries "By The Book" and if you are not carefull in your own attempts, you could set others back in theirs or end them completely. There is a perception of Americans as all being(pardon the expression)"Cowboys", out to do things as they darn well please and to hell with everyone else. I know that some of what you've heard is like a lecture from Miss Manners, but , the Good Ol' Boy network will only get you so far, then dealing as a diplomat becomes a neccessity. Working for a government entity set me straight on that years ago. Now as for Rob, his enthusiasm for the hunt is as high as anyone I've ever know. But, having been a hunter, he learned as we all did that shooting a deer legally was always a better way. The wardens never take away a deer shot with a license in season. BUT, the wardens always seem to catch the poachers around here. Then you loose your deer(no meat this winter),your license(No more privilage to get meat) and your gun(no more ability to get meat at all :cry: ) Those are lessons we YANKEES take to heart! 'Nough preachin', 'nough said. Good Luckin your Endevours. I
Hope it works out and we all see another bird saved.

Sure Don:

However it's not the advise, but when it's given in a rude and obnoxious manner it's thrown out and treated as garbage as a whole.

Sorry Jeff, but you've misconstued everything I;ve said on this board in a very wordy manner. Only read about a paragraph before I got bored

pity you got bored, you might have found that wordy though it was my reply was not rude or obnoxious.

sorry but to me you seem to come across as the sort of person who asks a question knowing exactly how you'd answer it and when it doesn't agree with your answer you ignore it anyway. I hope one day you learn that people have 2 ears and 1 mouth and should use them according to the numbers.

sorry for the personalism of this commentary scott but as you can see I addressed it due to a percieved attitude to my posts and tried to keep it civil.
