This is off topic for your thread Soquili but did anybody see the segment on the Nightly News with Jim Leyher on PBS last night (Wednesday Dec. 18) concerning the woman who is a member of the Black Foot nation and who is suing the US Governement for monies owed her people?

Talk about corruption and criminal negligence! The department of the Interior destroying documents pertaining to agreements with these people over royalty payments for oil drilling, etc. so the government would not have to pay these people what it owed them.

The Justice Department shut down the Deparment of the Interior's website when they discovered tremendous security leaks that would allow amoung other people, hackers from the oil companies to hack into the system to change the information. Then when people complained about not getting their checks, the Department of the Interior said, blame the lady who brought the law suite. She's the one who is responsible for the site being shut down so we cannot access theh information. What a bunch of horse dung.

I was not proud to be an American after watching that program.

On the other hand, I am glad to hear things are looking better for your brother. Our hopes and prayers are with him and his family.
