To All;

1) As an individual I can't speak for the american public but the number and sincerity of the many messages of condolence, world-wide, reminds me that this forum is a forum for folks who "build" and "make".

As such, many of this forums members are probably shocked by those who "un-make" (destroy).

As this forum is international in scope it is my hope that all of us who "make" do not allow recent events to allow us to deviate from out "constructivism".

Also, I hope that some form of international connection between those of us who constructively "build" allows us to overcome the policies that would divide us ideologically.

We may not agree ideologically but perhaps we can agree upon the dignity of each individual and their right to exist, non-destructively prosper, and constructively exchange ideas.

regards to the many,
p
