thank you. btw, you sound angry.
No, you don't need to explain the difference between trigger and reason.

And until France re-published stuff there were still the few countries very openly opposing Britain's and the USA's action on terror.

In most cases my approach is one of "just cut out the dumb shit" but this will really need one big heartfelt "sorry" or an even bigger "H-bomb". I think I should regularly start posting *what would you do if this were your last week on earth* meme's.
