It is quite interesting to me that the constitution basically is a document created to limit the power of government. But today it is being used to limit the freedom of We The People. We need to stand up for our beliefs and protect our freedoms. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 28 Jul 1999 23:05:07 EDT From: Squinty54@aol.com Subject: Re: MtMan-List: Fw: AMM-List: Space Shuttle...non period subject Lanney wrote: << I just witnesed an awesome sight.

I paid for my ride Buck, and the tar wasn't that hard to remove either. Turtle are you still as slow as years ago ? I have already talked to Mr. Brown and he gave his best to all, he's working on the Lewis theory not being correct - lots of doc. information. Thanks guys "Concho" Yes, I look forward to having input on this list. __________________________________________ > On Fri, 30 July 1999, "Buck" wrote: > Turtle, > Didn't realize Daniel Smith was "DL" or "Concho" when sending him the "sign" tape.
