Bonsoir Senor Don Ron (Translated into civilized lingo reads as "Lord Sir Ron"), but ever since your last commentary on David Lester Young, I'm tempted to add the following sobriquet to your well-earned titles: "Prophet", though I might be constrained to hang on until his demise, as you wisely added.

Thanks very much for the very elegantly devised comment on COPLA 92 if it has anything very much to do with the entire development of the argument. On the other hand, your comment on COPLA 93 misses the target by coming close as comets that crash on Mars, it seems to me at the way our "parent" planet remains pock-marked.

Just one final observation on the numerous takes on Ukraine: Looks like America has a short memory. What about Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan; etc.??? Hope I have not stirred the hornet's nest !!!

Perhaps there is a lesson for today's situation. Already, 3 million women and children have fled to relative safety of the NATO countries. Laying low in case all is lost so that one day they can rise again and avenge the loss of their country, their land. Just like the lone wolf, when the alpha wolf is weak, challenges him and takes over the pack. So to a people without a country.
