I think we can "all-get-along" and still have an interest in historical rhetoric..... My family's so messed up, I don't even want to think about genetics!! Half Italian/half German (paternal) and half Italian/half German-Irish-english-godknowswhat (maternal)!! Used to work for the ol' kraut in the camera shop (yes, I've been chastised for the term already, thanks) and he told me I'd never make a good repairman because of genetics! might be so..... For a while I was the token "gentile" in my crowd (Gottlieb, Steinman, Bayman, etc.) Was treated like the "real" jews, including damn good food, etc (Gottlieb is the best cook I know) When people work together, party together, etc. these differences become moot..... Best luck in '99, Walter "never met a Jew I didn't like" Delesandri Leica photographer and political reactionary Denton, Tx.
