Euro currency

I'm confused, I thought that about 3500 died because of the terror attack in New York.  Surely the death toll due to UN sanctions and American and UK bombing since 1991 was in the region of 400,000 to 500,000 (mainly women and children dying of malnutrition and lack of medical facilities paid for under oil for aid but which the USA blocked delivery on) besides what has 9/11 NY got to do with Iraq? The terror attack on NY was carried out by Saudi Arabians NOT Iraqis so that's a bit like blaming the residents of Seattle because Bush 'won' in Florida!

Back on topic:

Douglass, hopefully you'll see some amazing photos in refugios across the Camino (San Juan de Orbigo springs to mind) of the various pilgrims that have 'recreated' the medieval mode of pilgrimage: scrip, scallop, staff, hat, gourd and staff - some even barefoot! It certainly makes you appreciate how 'easy' we have it nowadays, rugged, durable boots, anatomically correct packs, breathable weatherproof clothing and, most of all, a whole string of refugios that offer support and shelter.  I'm sure I couldn't do it so good luck to you if you can - don't forget to affect the eccentric stare and grow the chest warmer beard though!!

Just keep in mind that more people died in 9-11 than in Iraq.

The world is crazy. I am glad that I am old.

Anybody wishing for the good old days when the Americans ran half the
world and the Russians the other half?
