RE: Eclair ACL OFFENSIVE POLITICS...Please read

[cinesota@yahoo.com]

My apologies Phillip.  I didn't mean to offend you or anyone else.  I 
don't think Warren meant any offense either. Obviously he has a cause 
that is near and dear to his heart and he was just trying to get the 
word out. Phillip, I hope you do stay on the ACL List as your 
contributions to it have been invaluable and I think we all appreciate 
having you here.

Against my better judgement I weighed in on a political issue.  In the 
future maybe it would be better that we leave any nationalistic or 
political rhetoric off the List and stick to talking about cameras and 
lenses and such.  We have at least a dozen countries or more represented 
on this List and if we start down that road it will only lead to 
offending someone.  We got off track awhile back arguing about English 
vs. French ACL's and it quickly became England vs. France.  So please in 
any future postings keep in mind that this is a truly international 
forum.

In my defense, please re-read my original reply to Warren's posting.  
Hopefully you will see I was advocating parity for crews on both sides 
of the border. I didn't mean for the tone to be anti-Canadian or anti 
anything.  In fact I did point out that I don't find the "us versus 
them" argument all that constructive.  Bottom line is getting some 
movies made and hopefully enjoying ourselves and making a little money 
along the way.

Cheers,
Ray the List Mum
