    TODD:

    My apologies in advance if this post seems harsh, but I feel put on the defensive.

    First, if you knew me, you'd know *I'm* not "blaming" Canada (I spend several months a year there, and love many, many things about your country).

    Second, note that i said that CNN was blaming Canada. (note also the "uh-oh" before my post. My point with the uh-oh was that something bad was happening, namely, that my news, and thus someone in authority here was blaming Canada.) See the parenthetical where I say "sorry Canada", and say it will be interesting to see what the real answer is?

    Third, note that later I posted that just hours later the NEWS was saying it was Ohio's "fault".
    and in fact, I apologized on behalf of my entire country for the original finger pointing.

    Please. you don't know me. Give me half a chance before you decide that I'm coming from anything less than an open, nonantagonistic place.

    Finally, I really like the earlier poster who suggested we all stop blaming and just fix it.

    Here is where I'm coming from, basically. I worry that my govt will continue with finger pointing. I disagree with that.
    THAT, todd, was what motivated each of my posts.

    I suspect that Kingrattus also got a different sense of my post than i was trying to convey, and for that I also apologized, for using latin to apologize for my news in my country.
