To anonymous of 11/16/99 at 4:25....I believe that the word you meant to use to describe the upper class English was GENTEEL not Gentile. I'm sure that the gaelic "buidhe" has nothing to do with being a non-Jew.I don't know why unsigned messages are posted by the Mudcat site? No newspaper or magazine would publish an unsigned letter. I have no patience for YELLOW dingo's (see Kipling)who hide behind a veil of anonymity.
