Sharing outsiders input

["GerneyLee Carter" <cartergramling@msn.com>]

Hello,   been quite here for a while.  'thought I'd share with you the email 
I received from a 53 year old man and his knowledge and thoughts about the 
Korean War and how it affects the world now:

You lost a brother named Donovan in Korea? That is tough. It sounds like an 
Irish or scottish name... What branch of service was your brother in? 
Infantry? That was the "forgotten war." The policy of limited expectations 
that set up the failure in Vietnam. Your family can be proud that there is 
at least a very thriving South Korea. North Korea is a rogue nation with the 
son running the deal and starving his people. The former Soviet Union-- a 
major factor in the past-- is out of the picture. The question is China and 
that country will be a major (if not #1) focus or should be the focus for us 
in the 21st century.   In my opinion, they are on the way to dominate the 
Far East economically and politically. They can be a great trading partner 
or a serious enemy. Soon 2 billion people... That is a lot of rice...

Korea is a lynch pin.  too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer. But 
the Kimshee is ok. Just eat it with friends that you need to stick with for 
awhile.
Thanks,  Talk to you.
Bob




Regards, Gernilee
